Selling my r50p. Excellent physical condition. Complete minus hard drive. Comes with power supply. 1600x1200 ips flexview display. 1.86ghz processor and 2 gigs of ram. Looking to get 150 for it, but i'm open to offers.

Have you swapped the CPU? The fastest one offered on R50p was 1.7 Banias...

I (most kindly, and as humble as I'm able!) suggest that you expand you offering a bit, and specify a little more in detail e.g. the condition of the LCD; is it bright and like-new, or is it more or less having the well-known FlexView-shades near the corners and/or sides? Also, what about the (in-!)famous so-called "dust-specs" frequently experienced in ageing FlexView LCD's (= dust behind the [glass of the] LCD)? Any stuck or dead pixels? [Hint: Use the very good, free tool Dead Pixel Buddy ver. 1.1 to check all of this). How about the cosmetic condition of the LCD; any scratches or blemishes etc?

Does all interfaces run without any errors? No defects of any kind nowhere? The (relatively old) fan is still OK... no little rattling or the like? Lid and keyboard... no/few/many scratches and little or no worn keyboard keys (any shine on the trackpad or keyboard?).

The better and more concise you describe this ThinkPad, the faster it will sell (I'm confident!), and the less likely is it will give rise to buyer disappointment, if something is not as hoped (by the buyer), and was not sufficiently clearly described (by the seller). Perhaps link to images?

Good luck with the sale of this classic UXGA FlexView/IPS ThinkPad! :thumbs-UP:
