I want to sell my 2623DDU that I bought several months ago because the resolution is too high for me (everything is too small). Since this product is no longer sold, how much can I get for it? Is ebay a good place to sell thinkpads? Is there a big market for them there? I've never sold a laptop before so any advise would be handy.
Thanks.

Depending on how much warranty you have left, you're looking at between $1000 and $1300...configuration also matters. My opinion only, and I would need a full spec sheet to be able to pinpoint a more precise value.
I'm sure you'll sell it right here if you post it at a reasonable price...no need to feed bloodsuckers that run eBay...

Perhaps you should also put your location in the profile.

While I do not wish to turn your quest for a selling price on your 15" T60
FlexView/UXGA into a discussion thread, I just want to point your attention to the problem you mention for considering to sell your (very fine!) system; the too small font size. Many UXGA-users have discussed this issue, and there are several ways in which the "tiny fonts" can be made larger, so that you need
not suffer eye strain - you may e.g. have a look in the thread
15" 1600x1200 screen - Text too small? (see the post of Tue
Oct 30, 2007 11:36 am).
If you are otherwise satisfied (or perhaps even happy!) with your T60, then I think it would be a pity if you sold it - and then later on discovered that it could indeed be configured to satisfy you completely, also from this "visual" aspect.
Should you nevertheless choose to sell it, I am convinced you shall have no problems at all, and I agree with ajkula66 in his above suggested price (depending on remaining warranty, the cosmetic condition etc).
Best regards,
Johan
