Thinkpads Forum

Hello,

Having verified that my T60 is in working condition, I've begun to customize it. One thing I'm not entirely satisfied with aesthetically though, is the fact that Lenovo (understandably) swapped out the IBM Thinkpad logo sticker on top of the T60. I'm looking to replace this with the original IBM sticker, as it looks better in my opinion (or maybe I just got used to it.)

I've looked around on ebay, however everyone charges excessively for what can fit in an envelope and can be mailed off for 43 cents. Hopefully someone here has one for sale at non-outrageous prices.

As far as installation goes, I assume I can just pry off the existing sticker and put this in its place, or do I have to just stick it on top of the existing one?

Thanks in advance.

Edit:
Forgot to mention, I believe the sticker is 30mm x 18mm measured across the longest parts of the length and width, although I could be wrong. If you can assure me it will fit on the T60, I'll go ahead with it.

Is this what you are looking for? If so, the total cost incl. S/H is (only?!) $5 - I don't think that's so bad; after all consider all the pleasure it wil give you! Also, recall that's there is someone "in the other end" who is trying to make a dollar or two on this kind of small business; that's the way the World works! Alternatively, it seems that you can save a full $1 from this seller - that's the cheapest I have found! If even that is too expensive for you, well, then it would be my pleasure to donate a sticker for you, completely free of charge!

Yes, that is what I'm looking for.

I understand people want to make some extra money, but how much profit do people honestly expect for stickers lol - when was the last time we all seriously bought stickers? I can only remember back during elementary school because stickers were just so cool back then lol.

Anyway, I wouldn't mind paying for it, it just irks me when they clearly say they will ship it via USPS First Class (43 cent stamp...) and still charge you $2.50 for shipping - clearly underhandedness in trying to get more money out of you.

If you're willing to let go of one though, I'll be more than happy to send you $1-2 for your trouble lol, at least you're honest about it.

Thanks again

Regret to inform that - much unfortunately! - I don't have any sticker(s) at all, that I can offer to send you. What I said (or tried to say!), or at least was I meant, was that if you really, badly want an IBM sticker for your T60, and you simply just cannot afford the $5 cost, well, then I would be my pleasure to donate $5 to you, so you can get the sticker you want, but which you cannot afford. Just let me have you PayPal address, and I will immediately transfer the amount to you. All I want is that you are happy, and if that can be obtained for as little as $5, well, then it is simply the best business I have ever made!!

About eBay prices and shipping costs, and come explanation about why they are the way the are, see the thread Excessive eBay shipping and handling?

Best regards,

Johan

I guess this transaction is completed so I'm locking.

Johan nice gesture.

It's probable they don't make those stickers anymore...the old supply vs. demand thing probably why they cost so much.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words so stickers must not be to far behind.
