I'm looking to buy a cheap mini PC to run Home Assistant. I found lots on Amazon.es but I don't want to give them my money. Looking for something like a cheap €200 n150 box. Any suggestions where I can buy this in Europe?

Not European so I can't answer that part.

If you are only looking at running Home Assistant, why not look at one of their own boxes? Such as the Home Assistant Yellow. Or maybe something along the lines of a 1 liter PC such as the OptiPlex 3070 or whatever the best bang for the buck is on eBay nowadays.

Yes this! They sell HomeAssistant Green for 100$ and HomeAssistant Yellow does ship from various European sellers at various prices.

Otherwise agreed a used 1liter PC from a local IT refurbisher the best option if buying a general PC for HA.

I got a home assistant green and it's great. I just plugged it and it works.
