Any interest at all?

Otherwise its going to ebay.

Don't take it personally, but I think the price is a little too high. New on the Disc/MC/Visa site is $2799, so a used machine with 26 months of warranty left will never bring $2700. You can try eBay, but I doubt you'll get anywhere close to what you are looking for. July and August are great months to sell notebooks on eBay, people heading back to school.
Right now they just aren't bringing much. If you can hold off till then, you'll get closer to what you are looking for.

Well then someone make me an offer.

Im willing to listen.

i can attest that donnie is real and will do what he says..

he did purchase that thinkpad from me..
would be sad to see it go to ebay..

Looks like it might go to eBay. Seems there's a good number of nicer laptops for sale on this forum. Maybe it's just that everyone already has one or is like me and can't afford one.

This is the top of the Line T42p, so I dont know what you mean by nicer laptops, unless you mean T43p's.

When I said nicer, I said nicer, I mean as in good, not exactly beter than yours.

Last chance offer to thinkpads.com buyers before this goes to ebay.

Here is the specs of the machine in case anyone is unfamiliar with the model-type

Intel Mobile Pentium M 755 (2.0ghz)
1 GB PC2700 RAM
60GB 7200rpm HDD
15inch UXGA(1600x1200) TFT LCD
128MB ATI FireGL T2
CD-RW/DVD-R Multi-Burner(slim)
IBM 802.11a/b/g wireless(MPCI)
Bluetooth/Modem(CDC)
1Gb Ethernet(LOM)
UltraNav
Securechip
9 cell Li-Ion battery
Windows XP Pro

I also have a IBM USB Floppy Drive to include along with the floppy bag

I'm interested, but don't want to insult you with a too-low offer. I'll start my bidding at $1900.

Brad

Reserve price on this will be $2500.00

This is now an auction.

Bill or someone can you change the Line to say For Auction?

I will start the bidding at 2450.00

The Auction will run until next friday May 6th

Let the bidding begin

$2450.00

Why, out of all FS threads listed here, is only this one stickied?

Ill let Bill answer that.

I have dealt with Bill many times in the past...maybe thats why.

I would take that as a sign of utmost RESPECT if I were a buyer interested in this class of machine! What better reference or vote of confidence could one want as a buyer? To me, it's always worth it to pay a bit more for an item when you can be assured that the seller and his/her item are as represented. If one can afford this level of performance then their time is surely a valuable commodity, so much so that they should appreciate the "savings" Bill just afforded them by placing his trust in this seller.

Yak

I am restarting the auction.

Will run until next Friday May 13th

$2450.00 is the lowest I will take

Cmon guys lets see some action for a good deal

This is also now at ebay if you are interested

Congratulations on the sale!

Actually, it was a nigerian 419 scam

I have had to relist it.

Here is the relisted address

So I guess the reason you've increased the BIN price by $200 is to cover the monies lost to the Nigerians?

No, I just figured if someone on these boards made an offer, I would consider it and end the auction early. Otherwise someone could just buy it now for the 2800.00 I was originally looking for.

IF someone is truly interested in it, I will lower the buy it now price back to $2600.00.

Don,

I realize that this is your pride and joy Thinkpad, but your pricing is completely unrealistic IMHO.

There are several machines matching your's on eBay right now that are NIB with BIN pricing at $2199 or less.

There's Teresa's machine which also matches your offering and is only $1400 at the moment.

James

Ok

I have revised the item price

it is now starting at $2000.00 with a buy it now of $2500.00

Hope this seems fair
