So if i were to put my R52 up for sale in ebay with the real condition stated.. , it will be gone in 2 hours.. Because, it is simply in a fantastic condition and it is very clean.. :D

I have bought a used and cheap T41p from someone in ebay singapore and the thinkpad is still running fine except there is a crack at the side of the thinkpad. I made the seller bring his thinkpad for me to check it out personally before i hand him the cash..

i just bought an IBM certified refub T23. This thing looks like new, the XGA screen appears to me of a better quality than my SXGA+ of my one year old T60. There is no scratches anywhere whatsoever, new keyboard, new ports (i see no wear on the ports so i assume they are new). I haven't opened this thing up yet but it looks completely new. The ~$100 extra bucks for IBM refub was well worth it

Would you be so kind as to list the web-site where the Refured ThinkPads are located.

Most units are fairly expensive, but once in a while a crazy deal pops up. These deals don't last long, a day or two at most. So, check frequently.
