I picked up a refurbished Dell XPS13 9333 at Microcenter some months back. It's the best device I've ever owned. Beautiful display, good keyboard and long battery life. Works great in Linux -- not so well in FreeBSD. I guess that the Haswell graphics drivers haven't made it in yet.
If you're looking for really cheap, look at some eBay'ed Lenovo X61s. They have crappy displays, but run reasonably fast with decent enough battery life. I've run a variety of GNU/Linux distributions on them over the years. Similarly, the X200s will work well too. I think that you can even use Libreboot on the X200.
