How much do you think?

Post by elkmanwsu »

I have an HP Pavilion ze4400 laptop that I want to sell.

The specs are:

athlon xp 2400+ @1.8ghz processor
512MB RAM
15" screen
40gb hard drive
cd-rw/dvd combo
integrated wireless
shared RADEON IGP 320M 64mb video

the cons are:

-there are only 2 usb slots and they are not usb 2.0
-the left-click button sticks sometimes and doesn't work unless you push harder...I might be able to fix this but I haven't bothered yet...besides, I have a travel mouse for it or you can tap the touch pad to click.
-I screwed up the battery by leaving it plugged in 24/7 in my living room for a semester...Ive recently been conditioning the battery but it still only runs for a little over and hour.

It's a really nice laptop but I really haven't getting much use out of it lately. Can anyone tell me how much I should sell this thing for? How much should this be worth in its current state?

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. :)

Yeah. I figured it wasn't worth all that much. I bought it cheap and got some good use out of it. I just don't use it all that much anymore.

One Ebay I'm seeing a broken HP Pavilion that isn't as good as mine already at $175. I'm going to try to do some ebay watches and adjust according to their sales...maybe I can spruce up the the purchase if I include stuff on top of the wireless mini travel mouse.


Thanks everyone for your input!

well, ebay is completely different, you sell there, who knows how much you can get, anywhere from 100 to 500 probably(some people aren't too bright)

haha maybe I can interest one of those not too bright people to buy my lappy...

As long as I am totally honest of its condition...I try to go into detail.
I really don't mind selling the thing more than what it should cost.
