Price opinion please

#1 Post by saintnick » Thu Dec 11, 2008 8:33 pm

Hi there,
I am upgrading, and looking to sell my T40. Any thoughts on what a fair price for this guy would be? Overall condition is excellent, probably 9/10. Only keyboard shine is on the right side of space bar and slight on the enter keys. The case has zero scratches or marring. No dead pixels, great screen. I bought this one new, and have had it since
Here are the specs:
Product: ThinkPad T40 2373-92U
Original description: P M 1.6GHz,
512MB RAM, Upgraded to 1Gig
80GB 4200rpm HDD,
14.1 SXGA+(1400x1050) TFT LCD,
32MB ATI Radeon 9000, 16x10x24x/8x CD-RW/DVD(slim), Upgraded to dual layer DVD Burner
Bluetooth/Modem(CDC),
1Gb Ethernet(LOM),
802.11a/b Wireless(MPCI), Upgraded to ABG
Secure Chip(TCPA),
UltraNav,
9 cell battery, - 176 cycles
WinXP Pro
And of course, if anyone is interested, PM or email me.
T40/T21

If you get an original CD-RW/DVD and sell the DL burner separately, you can probably get a higher overall net value.

Thanks all for the input! Appreciate the help. I have the CDRW writer that came with it, so I may just sell the DVD burner separately on the suggestion.

Sold a very similar system the other day locally for $280. But it took awhile, I got a number of offers for $250.
