Hello folks,

I'm finally letting my X201 go, in great condition. It is fully functional, and has only been lightly used by me for less than 1 month in total usage.

A factory restore of Windows 7 Professional 64bit has been made on it, with all the proper Lenovo Enhanced Experience tweaks. There is also a Windows 7 Professional CD key at the bottom of the laptop, so you can re-install Windows at any time in the future, if that's your preference.

The specifications of the laptop is as follows:

Product: ThinkPad X201 3680-A68 [change]
Operating system: All [change]
Original description: i5-540M(2.53GHz), 4GB RAM, Intel X25M G2 80GB SSD, 12.1in 1280x800 LCD (upgraded with Flexview IPS screen), Intel HD Graphics, Intel 6200AGN wireless, WWAN upgradeable, Bluetooth, Modem, 1Gb Ethernet, UltraNav, Secure chip, Fingerprint reader, Camera, Win7 Pro 64bit

The laptop also features 3 years of on-site warranty repair (meaning that if you have a problem, you can schedule a technician to come into your home to repair the machine, without having to go through the hassle of sending the laptop to a depot center), which expires in 2013-04-20. Please refer to the attached picture of the proof of warranty.

The most special thing about this laptop is the fact that I retrofitted a Flexview IPS screen into the laptop. There is only a few such X201's, as far as I know. The improved viewing angle and color reproduction definitely make this one of the nicest laptops you can get.

Included in this auction will be the laptop itself, as well as an AC adapter. I've unfortunately misplaced the box and the battery, so those won't be included.

Below are a few pictures of the laptop itself, as well as a snapshot of the warranty information (battery was photographed before I misplaced it, so please only consider the sale as for the laptop and AC adapter only):










Asking for $800 -> $750 shipped to continental USA. I accept Paypal and money order.
Shipping will be via USPS Priority Mail (2-3 days).

Thanks!

My understanding is that you've voided the warranty by doing this. Am I wrong here?

Great looking machine by all means.

Good luck with the sale.

Nope, warranty is definitely not voided. Only thing is that the warranty won't cover the screen, as it is replaced by the user. The rest of the laptop is under warranty protection.

Several posts pertaining to warranty and AFFS vs. IPS were removed from this thread because that discussion does not belong in Marketplace. If anyone wants to discuss those topics please start a new thread in the appropriate forum.

Price dropped to $750.

Hi,

Is this the glossy AFFS or the matte one?

This is the glossy version but you can put the matte one you currently have into it with no problem.

Harryc put a Boe Hydis AFFS glossy on my X200 for me -- love it! Colors are crisp and clean -- I couldn't be happier with the glossy replacement

PM sent!

Hi all,
Thanks for the interest. I just took off not one week ago on a month-long business trip, and won't be back until the end of May. I will only be able to ship the laptop out then. If the mods feel like locking this thread, that's fine, as I will re-open a new FS thread after I get back. Sorry about that.

as long as the buyer is made aware of the shipping delay and you're able to answer questions in a timely manner, i'm all for leaving it open so you can get this sold.

if you do decide you want it locked though, you may do it yourself at any time by following the instructions here: http://www.thinkpads.com/forum/viewtopi ... 11&t=87335

Sounds fair
Thanks erik.

I'm finally home and can resume selling and shipping the laptop. Please PM if you're interested in purchasing. All info is as shown in the first post.

Laptop is now sold. Thanks everybody.
