I'd rather break into a house and steal a computer than buy one off the dark web. (Not recommending that you do of course.) There's no guarantee that you won't get caught or scammed on the dark web. Scour for for some computers on legit sites, or give a go at SE.

Precisely.

There's countless sites that sell PCs extremely cheap. I don't see why purchasing from the dark web Is any different.

Nope, not legitimate websites with money back guarantees anyways. 90% of the time those laptops are stolen anyways, if you want something powerful without such a price tag as an Alienware check out PCPartPicker. There's pre-made systems, or make your own (It's pretty hard to screw anything up with PCPartPicker).
