Should I fix my old laptop or buy new?

If repairs cost less than about half of a comparable new laptop and the machine still does what you need, fixing usually wins. Very old laptops may not get security updates anymore.

Before you goCheck if your laptop still gets system updates.
Ask the shop“How much life does this laptop have left?”
