I tried to resurrect an old P3 Toshiba but failed. I still have several pieces that could go into a similar generation system though so where in Korea could I but an old P3 generation for a reasonable price. I'm especially interested in the Thinkpad X series, the 23 or 24. Basically anything that will take an IDE hard drive and 133 RAM.

Right in front of the Yongsan tunnel there is a store selling old laptops (on the sinyoungsan side).

Also, in the mall above Yongsan station there are some shops on the upper floors selling used notebooks.

Other expats is the cheapest price I think...just haggle them down and cruise the buy sell forums here and seoul craigslist....

When you go into the electronics market (the first one, new one), go to the third floor on the escalator. Turn left and take your first aisle on your right. Small stall at the end. The guy is really honest, he's fixed a couple laptops for me. Hard working and his used/rebuilt laptops have a warranty and he can service.

Reasonable prices and if you haggle , he'll take off a little....

A couple of years ago used laptops were sparse at Yongsan market. Now, there are stores that sell nothing but them. Just go and walk around the two older buildings. There are plenty of stores selling them.
