FS Acer Travelmate 8103 + free carrying case

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Hey guys,

I am looking to sell my wifes notebook and figured this would be the best place to do it. The reason she is selling it is simply because she hardly ever uses it and wants some extra money for christmas shopping.

I have the same notebook and I love mine and so I talked her into getting one a couple of months after I bought mine and she just isn't the gamer that I am (and lets face it most ppl buy it for it's gaming potential) but she never really used it so she decided to sell it.

The system was purchased on 9.27.05 from newegg for $1.699.00 + tax + shipping which brought the total to $1,858.91 (we have original invoices for confirmation) and as of today newegg is is selling the system for $1,499,00 + tax + shipping which will take the price up to around $1,600.00 + so she decided to cut $500.00 off that price and sell the system for $1,100.00 + shipping and so if your looking to by a great notebook in excellent condition and save $500.00 at the same time then please consider this offer.

Once again here is the price breakdown

Original Price: $1,858.91 (has invoice to confirm)
Newegg Price: $1,600.00 + (with tax and shipping as of today)
Asking Price: $1,100.00 + shipping (thats $500.00 cheaper then newegg)


Now for the techinal stuff (aka what am I getting for my money)

First of all the system (cover, keyboard, screen, etc) is in excellent condition with no dents, scratches, chips, dings or anything like that. It has zero dead/stuck pixels and all the stickers/covers are intact. It has been very well taken care of as the images below will show.

Along with the notebook you will recieve a free sumedex carrying case (which I forgot to take a pic of but if you want I can do that as well) The system will be shipped in it's original boxes and with all the original papers, manuals, warranty information, software, etc.

I know alot of people here rely highly on a persons heatware rating as to determine if a seller is legit or not but I must admit this is the first thing I or my wife have ever sold online before and so we do not have any super seller accts to show you and I would rather be honest about this fact and not sell the notebook then to try and trick you into buying something under false pretenses. Saying this however we would like to sell the notebook and will do whatever we can to assure you that this is indeed a legitimate offer form trustworthy individuals.

As for payment is concerned we can accept money order, paypal or escrow and the system will be shipped once payment is secured. We will always keep you informed as to the current status of the transaction and you will recieve tracking information as soon as it is provided to us. You can also contact us by telephone if you wish and we will attempt to answer any questions / concerns you might have.

If you are interested then please leave me a PM and I will get back to you as soon as possible and finally I would just like to say thank you for your time and happy holidays.

I also wanted to say that the system will only be up for sale until the 20th of Dec because as stated above the main reason for the sale is because my wife wants some extra money for christmas shopping and she usually finishes her shopping by that time so there will no longer be a need to sell it so if your thinking about buying this system then don't think too long or it will no longer be up for sale.

Also I would like to ask (if permittied by the forum) for comments about the system like if you think the price is fair or if we are asking too much for it even if you are not interested in buying it we would like to hear some feedback thanks and once again happy holidays.

Just a quick bump to say the price is firm at $1,100.00 + shipping. I actually suggested $1,200.00 + shipping to my wife (which it's very well worth that) but she said she would take $1,100.00 + shipping so thats the price it will stay at and also note there are no trades but thanks anyway to those of you that have offered them.
