FS: Toshiba Satellite laptop

[Jermack71]

We bought this on the 28th of September, but the screen is too small and gives my girlfriend headaches, so we need to sell it and get one with a bigger screen. We can't return it, because it's been "used". So, i figured I'd give people here an opportunity before throwing it up on ebay. This is a Toshiba satellite U205-S5002. Specs are:

Comes with all paperwork and software that was originally with it, including the recovery disc(unopened) to bring it back to factory specs. I was gonna do it, but decided to let the buyer decide whether they wanted to or not. Still has the protective plastic on the top, to keep it from getting scratched. This is a great laptop, and I hate to get rid of it, but I can;'t afford to keep it and buy another one for my girlfriend. This originally cost $1,200, I'd like to get $800 (brought it down since apparently $900 was too high)plus shipping for it. Shipping will be actual, but I do require the buyer to purchase insurance and delivery confirmation. It will be shipped in it's original box, and shouldn't weigh more than 5 lbs.(The laptop itself is only 4.1lbs.) I am accepting paypal only for this, and if I don't have any takers in the next couple of days, it will go to ebay. Feel free to ask any other questions, I will answer any pm's as quick as possible.

I have feedback here and on ebay. Ebay id is Starrdaddy2000.

Sheesh! Nothing like threadcrappers! Thanks a lot guys. You mustn't have anything alse to do besides to try and spoil someone's sale. I'm sorry if I'm asking too much. I said I'd take offers. This cost me $1,200, and there's nothing wrong with it. I realize once it's used the value drops, but I'm trying to recoup as much as I can. Does that make me a bad guy? I thought $900 was reasonable. Somebody would be saving almost $300 on a practically new laptop. Maybe I should just give it away and hope someone will come along and give me one with a bigger screen for free. Next time if you're not interested in buying, please don't reply to my threads, your comments are not necessary. Thanks!

@sickdrummer-you said you'd pay $700. I'd bet it's not even a real offer, so why even bother throwing out a figure?

I too am in need of one. But unfortunately 1. The screen size is a tad too small for me and 2. I wouldn't be able to scrap up the cash quick enough to pay for it. Good luck on selling it though!

Looking it over, I'd say it's a pretty good deal for a nearly new laptop.

Good luck and more bumpage
