I'm considering making a trip to Yongsan or something, but would be interested in buying from someone here on eslcafe for the right price. If you've got a new or used notebook computer to offer, I'd be keen to hear the details.

Thanks! Not looking to spend a fortune but otherwise I'm not all that particular; looking to use this thing for internet surfing and downloading torrents, word processing, and thats about it.

on another front, if anyone has any thoughts on other good ways of acquiring a laptop at a fair price here in Korea, i'd love to hear that also. One thing I was looking at was getting a used one from everythingyouneedkorea.com or something like that. Any and all comments are appreciated.

laptops are more expensive in korea then the states adn the parts arent that good. but gmarket is where i bought a laptop for my girlfriend. it was cheaper there than in yongsan, technomart, and that crappy alluneedkorea.com

thanks for the tip.
Where is gmarket located?
also, what's wrong with that alluneedkorea.com? Their prices seem pretty okay for a used laptop, no?

gmarket is an internet shopping mall that is also in english. gmarket.co.kr. i buy stuff from there all the time its very reliable. and alluneed is way overpriced check gmarket.

thanks. gmarket looks to be a very solid option

[crlb2006]

gmarket seems to have great deals. is there anything wrong with something like this:
