I want to connect a PCI dock to mu laptop

[tultalk1]

I want to add a PCI external dock to my laptop.

I am looking at "Laptop External Graphics Card Adapter Expansion Capabilities Gpu"

Looks like a PCIe dock to me. Why would it refer to graphics?

Should something like that work with other PCIe card?

Are there any cards (PCMCIA etc) that allow external connection to PCI bus?

Thanks

This is something you need to ask from the selling party. Maybe the seller only caters to gamers and has simplified their spiel.

PCIe does not define graphics card specific slots, they are all equal in that regard.

Your laptop does not have card slots. Only reasonable way to connect external PCIe card would be via Thunderbolt connection - which your laptop does not have.

You could - in theory - connect an external PCIe card to the PCIe slots in your laptop - into the WLAN / WWAN slots perhaps - but I have no experience of such things, and your laptop may not accept unknown PCIe devices in those slots anyway.
