Selling Laptop - Price Advise!
 
Hi guys,

Haven't been on here for a few months, so a bit cheeky to come back on for some advise - but i'm gonna do it anyway.

Basically i need some cash and am (hopefully) going to sell my laptop and downgrade.

It's about a year old (warranty is now over).

Bought from Novatech.

Spec:

P4 3.06GHZ (desktop processor)
1024MB PC2100 RAM
60GB HDD (not sure of speed)
CDRW/DVD Drive (not working properly - a new one will cost ~£90)
nVidia GeForce FX GO 5600 with 64MB DDR RAM
Battery does not work anymore, so would have to be constantly connected to power supply - or buy a new battery.


That's about it, what sort of price do you think I could get for that?

Cheers,

Jo

When you know what it's worth you could advertise it in our for sale/wanted section :)

How much did you buy it for?

Looking at prices I'd make a guess at 700-800

700-800 :dozey: I bought mine for £699 with everything working.

Errr, I think a guess of 700-800 isn't bad, seeing as yours cost exactly one pund less that Kliros lowest price :p:

Back then it was almost exactly £1000 (not sure what the exact price was, couple of pounds either side tho...).

It is starting to look like it may nor be worth selling it as no-one would be willing to buy it anyway!!

Unfortunately things like laptops will depreciate a fair amount as newer ones with better capabilities come out for cheaper prices, it looks like a good spec, is there any reason for wanting to sell it?
