Hi there

I am considering selling my laptop as I want a desktop. It was bought 18 months ago in Australia.

http://www.ciao.co.uk/Toshiba_Satellite_M50_157__6372714

I paid $1600AUD

I upgraded it to 2GB of ram a month ago. It has a 1.6GHZ celeron processor and all the usual software. Ofcourse it has a australian power chord but runs fine with a simple travel power socket adaptor which will be included.

I am not a computer head so not sure what its worth so if you make me a reasonable offer I will consider it.

Best to email me at

[email protected]

please dont send any stupid $50 offers as it is a great machine in new condition.

It is running XP Home and has only ever been used for Office, Internet and mutimedia.

So, this is an auction? Maybe you could post a ballpark price that you expect to receive.

as far as the bid, i don't want to speak for the seller. but i just threw the word bid out there in my offer because i didn't assume it was the price he was looking for, but it was on the table.

its not an auction but being a modest computer user Im not really sure of the value of used computers so was just seeing if i could get a fair price. I was hoping for 450 - 500 but im not sure f that is realistic or not.

dont mean to offend by not naming a price just of not very technical when it comes to pc's

You are aware that for less than 500k won you can purchase a NEW dual core laptop with superior features?

Lenovo ThinkPad R61i Laptop Computer - Intel Pentium Dual-Core T2330 1.6GHz, 802.11a/b/g Wireless, 1GB DDR2, 120GB HDD, DVDRW, 15.4" WXGA, Windows Vista Home Premium

Only $499.97

Take the 350k. Get yourself a nice desktop for the same money.

I personally find the best pricing (10-30% cheaper than the I'Park mall) at the son-in arcade in Yongsan.

You can get comparable prices on Danawa and that quote was from the Lenovo website.

I'd say 325,000 to 350,000 is fair.
