Over the last months, I have had successful and nice experiences with buying from rkawakami, erik and tfflivemb2. A 560Z, a T410 and a 390X in good condition, and later a 701C in Very good condition have changed owners. This just confirms how confident one can be buying stuff from users here instead of through other sources. No worries, and you are never disappointed with what you get.

I also did a trade with automobus, which brought me a package of useful fun stuff. Thanks!

sold a 701C to Norway Pad (plus a 770X a while back) with great results.   shipping overseas is always a challenge and things couldn't have gone more smoothly.   payment was quick and communication excellent.

also sold a ThinkPad Tablet to tarvoke.   payment was immediate and communication always prompt.   it was as easy of a transaction as it gets.

both are highly recommended!

received a sealed-NIB TPT dock from Neil, thank you!
works perfectly, and is exactly what I needed. well-packaged, sent very quickly! (fri/sat and arrived Monday) and I received a tracking# immediately as it was shipped.

forgot to mention - erik, as well, provided a tracking# immediately upon shipment.

great communication, guys, thanks again!

Jedisurfer1, is a very friendly and knowledgeable gentleman. He sold me a docking station and power supply. He shipped the unit the same day that I paid him. I received it packaged very well (aka lots of bubble wrap). I would purchase from him again! :D

Thank you,

Thanks JohnD, I had a very pleasant transaction with JohnD, even talked on the phone with him. Friendly, very easy and smooth transaction, would definitely deal with again.

I just wanted to leave positive feedback for underclocker. The same day I paid him, he shipped the drive out to me. I received it today and I am happy since I want to install it in my x61s or t410i (i5).

Thank you,

Just wanted to share a very good buying experience with Forum Member Pizza Engineer. The package was very well packed up, it arrived safe and fast, communication was excellent and everything works.

I offered to pay something for the paypal fee and he would have none of it. The ibm 560E works perfect and is in excellent shape.

I would recommend this seller in a heartbeat.

Thank you so much!

I'm a long-time forum lurker who recently joined to purchase an X301 from 91011 and I am very glad I did. Fantastic pre-purchase communications, patience in helping me configure a machine to my requirements, excellent packaging, quick shipping. The machine I received surpassed John's condition description and is working flawlessly. It was a first-class buying experience in every way, and I strongly recommend 91011.

I have to agree with BobA about JohnD.

He is very fair. I have said this here before. John has never paid me what I asked he has always paid more. You probably will not find that anywhere.

Have had excellent not so recent transactions with George.

I bought an X61T from blackpit. The price was fair, he was fast, he provided lots of high quality pictures and the condition of the laptop was exactly as advertised.

I sold a X61T to Aram. His questions were spot on and to the point, he sent the payment as soon as we agreed on the price, and was all around a joy to to do business with. Thanks for the smooth transaction and I hope you'll enjoy the laptop.

All the best,
