LF: T420s / T430s buy or trade for an X220

[plympton]

I think I want a 14" machine as I'm not road warrioring it much anymore.

Looking for a really good condition T420s or T430s, high spec i5 or i7. Can be a project machine, I'll pop in a fresh SSD ETC.

My X220 is the rare unicorn of 16gb, IPS, i7. It's really nice, but I got my wife a T420s and think the size would Suit me until Lenovo gets their heads out... And ship the Classic!

I have an 420s i7 in fair condition (runs fine) and an i5 good for parts which could go together. With or without drive and ram. If you are interested, let me know and we can email details both ways.

My X220 is a 4286CTR (Refurb from Lenovo). I don't have the original BOM, but it's changed a bit, so I'll just list what I know:

I flashed the de-whitelisted BIOS so I could Hackintosh it.

Dell 1515 Wireless card (have the original too)
Webcam
Core i7-2640M (2.8GHz -> 3.5GHz)
Battery is Green (see pics)
2 x 8GB RAM (currently)
Keyboard is like new
New palmrest w/ fingerprint reader
IPS LCD, no ghosting as far as I can tell, no major bleed, hotspots, dead pixels, scratches
Case top and bottom no cracks, nicks. Rubber has below-normal wear (it's pretty clean, docked most of the time)

I'd trade/sell it without the drives and RAM, and keep the keyboard. Basically in a trade keep anything common between units.
