Good Source for R50p AC Adapter?

#1 Post by burnt_toast » Sun Oct 19, 2008 2:00 am

Looking around, these guys: Sib-Auctions on ebay seem to be the cheapest at 20 bucks with free shipping, but are they good quality replacements?

Can't link directly due to format but here is the link to their charger:

Code: Select all

Let me know what you guys think and if you have other suggestions, thanks!

Get a new/used Genuine IBM/Lenovo AC adapter.

If I were you, I'd post a wanted to buy listing in the Marketplace that simply says that you're looking for a genuine 72W AC adapter, and someone will probably offer you one for a reasonable price within a day or 2. One of my previous TPs that I bought second hand came with a non-genuine AC adapter...it worked fine, but I would have preferred a genuine one.
