T420 Price question.

#1 Post by harvest109 » Sun Oct 25, 2015 11:21 am

I have a ThinkPad T420 with Intel HD Graphics 3000 and 8GB of RAM and 150 GB hard drive.
How much do you think I can sell it for?
I want to try and get a computer I can run games on.
Intel i5-2520M CPU
I reapplied thermal paste and cleaned out the dust this month.

-Never overclocked.

I bought mine refub for $405.45 from canada computers if that gives you an idea how much they go for. Is it IPS modded?

$400 for a low end T420 is way high. I'd expect $200 or so (that's what I paid for mine with HD+, 2.6G i5, nVidia) tops.

I added 4GB ram and did the thermal paste myself.

I just bought one, without a hard drive and with 6 GB of ram, for $104 on ebay.

Canadian $405.45
1 CAD = 0.7521 USD (2 day)

United States Dollar (USD) $304.94
1 USD = 1.3296 CAD

Most here do not speak loonies and toonies my friend.

$304.94 is the price in US dollars.

In British pounds sterling it's £ 202.56

In Euro's it's 283.86

$400 is on the high side, but if you're buying one from a store versus private party you're going to pay more. $400 may also include Canadian sales tax (13%).
