Not expecting to sell this on CAG for my asking price of $1,400, although it would be nice, and i could even go down to [size=+1]$1,300 shipped for any CAG [/size]willing to pony up the money for my gaming laptop.
I'm really posting this thread to get advice on how to sell this thing. Ebay is looking dry, and craigslist is giving me scam offers.

also feel free to click on my link

FYI, this thing is practically new. I have used it for about a week now.
 
[quote name='sandrokstar']it's a week old. so 2 years minus 1 week. 103 weeks?[/quote]I have a friend that may be interested.

I'll need the Service Tag # to validate the warranty though.

Thanks.
 
dont want to be a-O but i get notebook for less then a 1,000

with similar specs? i'd say you got an awesome deal.
also not trying to be an a-O here, but i don't think you know what you're talking about. After posting in the notebook forums the best price for something like this is $1,500 before tax & shipping w/o warranty.
 
damn, I've been looking to swap my gaming desktop for a laptop for sometime now and this pretty much fits the bill.

Hmmm....:whistle2:k

If I had gotten my Stimulus check already, I would've been on this.

Good luck!

btw, how come you haven't considered just returning it then?

Hmmm, FYI, if you have an estimated date we could work something out. But i understand, i was hoping to get rid of this thing by July. I haven't returned it because I haven't found anything wrong with it, the return process just doesn't seem practical. Also, I'm not sure i'd get a full return at this point (i ordered it in early April).
 
where did u buy this at and do u know if dell will put in a blu-ray player so it can play/burn blu-ray movies for me
 
there was a $500 optional upgrade to put in a Blu-Ray player from the Dell website (where i bought it). It definitely has the capability to do 1080p movies. I've watched a few on it already, and it has HDMI out.
 
What's the OS in there? You got Media Center on there? Microsoft office? Any disks provided? Would it come with everything that originally came with it including box?

What ways would you take payment?

What ways would you take payment?[/QUOTE]

1. Vista Home Premium
2. Media Center is on there
3. No MS Office, i use Open Office
4. Comes with absolutely everything that it originally came with (ask me about that, there's alot of stuff including a 14-day trial for LoTR: Online), even in the stylish box.
5. On CAG, i'll take almost any form of payment, the more reliable you are, the better the price is too.

thanx for these questions.
 
would u go 1150 and can u find out about the blu-ray player and how good is this on gaming because i want this for movies/music and pc gaming
 
[quote name='Capn Stabby']Do you have the receipt?[/quote]

Yes I do, a hard copy and a virtual one (it was printed and e-mailed to me from Dell).

I'll look into Blu Ray player, but that is a pretty low offer. But being as broke as i am, i will consider it.[/QUOTE]
who 's going to ship/pay first hows it going to go and ask if u need to be the person to get the blu-ray player add-on ok and also ask about a blu-ray player that can burn too ok
 
For anyone interested,
Dell uses Panasonic UJ-225 for slot load Blu Ray players. You have to use this model in order to upgrade. You can buy this part from Dell, or try Ebay, you might get lucky.
That's the official word.
My 2 cents, at this stage in its development Blu Ray is not worth the money, the discs themselves are too expensive.

forget u then sell to some one else i'll buy somwhere else
 
Starmask, that really wasn't cool. I posted the info you asked for, you don't get to lowball me and insult me. I've reported your posts, if the mods don't warn you then I'll at least tell you straight up, quit acting like a dick.
And for fuck sake, use some proper grammar, your last post wasn't even comprehensible.
