This time it seems a tad cheaper although it is shipped from China. If you choose Euro as payment and you have a Halifax, Revolut or similar card it comes up to ~£127 with free shipping to the UK.
Really tempted to click on purchase as I was after a small cheap-ish Win 10 laptop.

Usually, I would recommend to spend about £400 on a decent laptop: recent CPU, at least 8GB of RAM, SSD, FullHD touchscreen, external battery etc. It will last longer, it is nice to use, and it may be the better investment.
If that is not an option, I would look at a Chromebook. There are a number of options below and above £200. Yes, they are limited in what they can do, but the software is designed for simple hardware, and they have a few very nice features (like instant resume). I would try to get a Full HD screen and a recent CPU, so that it can run Android apps.
There are some simple 2-in-1 WIndows laptops (tablets with keyboards) around that price point, but usually with small screens (10" or 11.6").
Or you could look at a used laptop, but then you are unlikely to get a FullHD screen.

Bought on recently. Not bad for the money. It does take an age to charge but seems to be okay. There is a little flex in the keyboard but not too bad.

Seems to be finished. I'm showing £135 as the advertised price and once you add VAT and customs charges that's £170+

Choose to pay in Euro then the prize drops to ~150 Euro which is around £125 at the moment, but yes you run the risk of custom charges.

You're worrying too much. For £135 it's cheap enough to be a throwaway device.

That is not really a laptop, more a modern netbook with minimal hardware specs. The CPU is slow by any means, the eMMC is small and possible slow, the camera terrible. At least the screen seems decent, so maybe a good choice for casual web browsing.

Do you have an alternative at around £130 by any chance cause I have been looking for one the past month? Just need it for Youtube and casual browsing. Screen should not be to big either.

Currently I have 2 desktops and 2 "proper" laptops. I just need one for Youtube in the garden with a decent battery life (over 5h, which my laptops would not deliver) and I do not really want to spend much more than £130. Chromebooks are not really an option. I recently gave one away cause I could not get used to the OS. So my only option is a Win 7 or 10 netbook/notebook.
Don't really care about performance. Just portability and battery life. For that money tbh I have not found a better alternative but I am open to suggestions.

How about a used Lenovo X230? About £150?

For that price I could get only a refurbished/used X230 as you said and I already have a T420 but the battery is dying. Have tried a few from ebay but I cannot get over 1,5h from them. The original Lenovo one is the same price as the Jumper netbook so not really an option.

I have one and the wifi reception is weak. Effectively no warranty as according to them carriage both ways is at your cost.

yes this is defo a letdown with all china products though. It just isn't the same when we encounter a problem, they ask for you to pay the shipping which is expensive from u.k. Still we buy from there because even with shipping added it is cheaper than buying from here.
Considering most products are made in China how we are selling them at double the price is beyond me.

Presumably this £100+ item was paid for directly via a credit card to benefit from Section 75 protection, so the credit card company is your first port of call to service warranty requirements; don't bother with the vendor, it's too much faff.
