 |
|
I have a Gateway (Model#: M305CRV) laptop for sale.
I have no idea how to gauge the value of the thing though so I'm gonna ask y'all for offers first. I just formatted the hard drive and installed iTunes...that's all that's on it now (and XP of course).
it's got
* 40G harddrive
* 250M memory (I don't know for certain but I'm almost positive that it's expandable)
* Celeron CPU (2.4 Ghz)
* Windows XP (I will look through out computer stuff to see if we have M.Office)
* DVD/CD writer
* 2 USB 2.0 (I think).
Comes with:
* External sound card (internal card suddenly hooped itself while we were on vacation)
* Good sized leather bag.
* Logitech video cam (bought last year for 80$)
We used this lil' number almost exclusively as a TV last year and it did the job damn fine.
Actually, offers in this thread are fine too.
thanks |

I think 800 is a fair price, but I'm not in the market for a laptop right now.
You can trust the OP, he's a good guy that is well-known on the Tech Forum.

Is that $800 that you say is a fair price? I'm not trying to be offensive in any way. Just a little confused on what you say is a fair price. |

HAHA!!!
Thanks guys. When k-rok posted that, I thought:
1) 800 for THIS??? No way!
2) Respected in the computer forum? Not talking about me.
I was just too embarrassed to pipe up "I don't understand what you're saying: Are you insulting me?"
Thanks for the clarification folks.
Is 300 reasonable though? |

Tell me where to go for that deal on the HP. I was just there this weekend and don't recall seeing any HP's with those kind of specs for $800.
It was more like Intel Centrino 2.0, 80gb, 512mb, 128 ATI for around $750 asking. I'm not discounting what you say, but fill us in on who and where in Yongsan please. |

I'd say those specs are much less than impressive. It seems to be in line with those $100 laptops they are giving to third world children. Not trying to be rude.
One laptop per child specs
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/$100_laptop#Hardware
Actually, it specs out at much less
The $100 laptops cant be bought for $200 from non third world citizens. |

On the other hand, someone just having gotten to Korea, without too much coin in their pockets and who wants quick access to a decent working computer without having to do all the research and shopping around.
I think you could fetch 300 for it IMHO. |

Electroland, Son-in-plaza.
There are lots of good deals once you get away from the I'Park mall above the station.
Note to the OP. They buy used laptops there too. There are 3 or 4 used laptop shops in the son-in-plaza. On a private sale you should ask about 100k won more than they offer you. |
