Can someone give me a ballpark what this might be worth-

#1 Post by toddreg » Tue Jan 20, 2009 8:02 pm

considering it is very clean and say an 8 on a scale of 1-10. Can a warranty still be purchased after the original one has expired?

Thanks for the help-

With no warranty, probably no more than $600-650, depending on the condition. A lot of people consider the WSXGA+ LCDs on these units to be the worst imaginable...

From what I recall, a two-year extension on an unit where the warranty has lapsed was $249, and it extends it to the total of three years from original shipment date. Namely, if the warranty expired in April of 2008, extension would cover the machine through April of 2010.

My $0.02 only...

just keeping an eye out for a great deal. Really want a 15" Flexview model. George, when is the next harvest at the Flex Farm.

Harvest is here but no T6x units I'm afraid... :)

If you decide to settle for a high-end T43/p with excellent pedigree let me know...
