T60 on eBay--good deal?

#1 Post by vitalous » Tue Feb 03, 2009 10:46 am

I'm considering adding a T60/T60p to my ThinkPad arsenal.
Is this a 'deal' at $529? Its offered by a very reputable seller.

Thanks.

Welcome to the forum!

You can do better by quite a margin in my opinion...

Good luck.

I agree with ajkula66, for similar price you could get a T60 with more RAM and/or bigger/faster HD.

Cheers

It sold with "buy it now" for 429 plus $25 shipping. Sounds like a pretty good deal to me.

We were discussing the original price of $529 plus shipping...$429 does sound a lot better...

$429 is a good deal IMO.

Sucks for me though. I was hoping to sell my Powerbook and this T60 to get a T61 or T60 with SXGA and ATI Graphics. Now I have to wait for the recession to end I guess. Based on that price, my 15" T60 should be worth about $250 right?
