This is not a T43 for sale, this is a giveaway T43.

Wow. What this world has come to. Scaryyyy... :eek:

Best of luck with your giveaway. I'm honestly impressed with your charitable spirit. :bow:

Why did you sell it for so cheap? Because you hate money?

Don't make the OP feel badly about his quick sale. While the price seems low, it is actually close to market.

Used T4x's have dropped in price quickly. You can buy new unopened units on eBay (right now) for $525. Yes, different spec's, but that's the general idea (see item # 190140766288).

Bottom line, T40's have sold on this board recently in the $300 range. Entry level T43's aren't too much different than other T40, T41 or T42's.

The only thing amazing to me is that people are regularly buying T23's for over $300!!!

It's a great time to buy a used T4x.

Yeah that part up there is freaking crazy!!! I'm like slap another $50 on there and you can get a T40 or at least a T30 if you're lucky. I see them on Craigslist all the time and i have to ask myself (and sometimes the seller) if they are crazy. I see some old 7yr old machines that people are trying to sell for $350 or so. I'm like that's a 800mhz Pentium 3!! Yikes...

Oh well, lucky them if they can get it sold tho. I wish i had a T22 to sell for $300.

And it's a great time to sell them, too. It's all about finding the right buyer.

It could be cheaper, T42p sometimes only sold like at 550$.

anyway, great price though.
