FA: Rare Japanese IBM Thinkpad G50 on eBay
FA: Rare Japanese IBM Thinkpad G50 on eBay
A rare IBM Thinkpad G50 (the ones only sold in Japan) it's for auction on eBay Spain.
The laptop has missing parts and its starting bid is as 30 EUR.
I'm not sure a link can be written here or if "for auction" topics are allowed, I didn't saw anything about it on this site rules, anyways, it will be easy to find it as it's the only one G50 in all eBay.
Thanks for reading.

Re: FA: Rare Japanese IBM Thinkpad G50 on eBay
If this is rare, I should go flip some Japanese Thinkpads. There are so many on Yahoo Auctions and Mercari.
That said, I saw a lot of Lenovo Thinkpad G50 results when searching this morning on ebay, perhaps just give us the direct link. Otherwise, your item doesn't have (even a starting) price and that is certainly against Marketplace rules from what I have seen in the past.

Re: FA: Rare Japanese IBM Thinkpad G50 on eBay
I took a look on Yahoo Auctions, obviously in Japan, and saw only one IBM G50, not sure if one equals to "so many" for you. So you can "go flip some Japanese Thinkpads" or flip whatever you want.
I'm not talking about the Lenovo G50-30, G50-45, G50-80, etc, I'm talking about the last in the IBM G series (G40 and G41) the G50 only sold in Japan.
I never saw any IBM Thinkpad G50 on eBay and I always search worldwide, I've been buying lots of G40 and lots of G41 for a very long time, I buy as many as I can find, but never an IBM G50, neither a complete one nor a single part of it.
As I said I took a fast reading of marketplace rules and found that you can't sell new Thinkpads, you can't be a professional seller, no more than 5 or so items for sale, no topic bumping abuse and a couple things more but I didn't find anything against auction links, anyways, if a forum admin tells me to remove the topic, I will do it with no questions asked.

I know about the S , limited to Japan, but not about the G. What were the specs/particularities ?

I see a link was added by a "forum admin" anyway, so that takes care of the major concerns towards naming a price for your FS/FA post here.gseries wrote: ↑Mon Jan 29, 2018 6:35 pmADMIN added link: https://www.ebay.es/itm/RARE-JAPANESE-I ... 2768081904
Otherwise,
Glad you took your precious time to look around on a site where I suspect you don't do much buying. It's a bit impolite to the store you know (salt aside..)gseries wrote: ↑Sun Jan 28, 2018 8:02 pmI took a look on Yahoo Auctions, obviously in Japan, and saw only one IBM G50, not sure if one equals to "so many" for you.

Yes, I see the exact same one that is there. But for a computer this "rare"** and for an auction site where items are renewed every week until they are sold (and I doubt you did a search for items sold in the past) I find that even having one is already "a lot". That said, my goal here isn't really to flip Japanese Thinkpads so it was said in jest (which I see you take jest horribly, so I will just respond with added salt instead). Not to mention that I doubt you bothered trying local listings, not-often used Craigslist, local stores, and Mercari. B u t never mind that - Japan is only congruent to Yahoo Auctions, yes... (SALT WARNING)
**Oh right, is it suddenly such a normal computer that you put the low, low price of 30 euros on to just get it off your hands? Not so rare anymore?
Anyway, I'm a busy person. I'll see to it that this comment on your post thread receives no further attention.*
I think we are both following the rules, so I won't even comment on the rest of your post, no questions asked.
*P.S. Responding directly to this post will likely incur more salt. You have been warned (and advised not to respond to this post).

Same chipset/CPU as T60/R60/X60. Features gigantic heatsink, T40 style keyboard, floppy disk drive, and no touchpad.
Re: FA: Rare Japanese IBM Thinkpad G50 on eBay
Sorry Mazzinia for answering late.
They came with Celeron M or Core Duo processor, Intel GMA 950 graphics and I think everything else was the same as in the G40 and G41, I think I read somewhere that its BIOS menu was available in Japanese language only but not 100% sure about that.
There was a site that if you wrote the IBM laptop type number then it displayed its specific configuration but now I can't find that database site.

Thanks to the admin who posted the link.
Re: FA: Rare Japanese IBM Thinkpad G50 on eBay
It's not the full Personal System ReFerence (PSRF) for the model, but there is a basics of the configuration specs on this website:gseries wrote: ↑Mon Jan 29, 2018 3:46 pmSorry Mazzinia for answering late.
