do not buy - there trying to rip you off.
Personally I don't think it's worth buying. I buy and sell laptops wholesale everyday so I know what companies pay, where they get it and how much it could be sold for. 2 Years ago we got 100 acer aspire 15.4" laptops in retail box, full warranty and every spec is higher then what the guy's ad said. My cost was $400 and now I am thinking of just parting it out because acer's doesn't hold values and kinda suck IMO after using one. For $260 he would still be making out like a bandit because the warranty is up, acer replacement parts are so much more money then a hp notebook and for $800 you wouldn't believe the specs and laptop I could get you and $800 I get top of the line computers for.
The only thing in the acer is a laptop motherboard and display which could be sold for parts, the rest is bad and acer discontinued those spec machines. I will be more then happy to assist you in findind the right laptop and you could buy it from any vender you like... I do sell laptops and run a full time small business but as you could see, I am just giving an opinion and I don't want you to think im a salesman lol. If you were serious and wanted to buy one, I would work with you but overall don't buy the acer. Id get rid of my own personal acer for cheaper and people lie when it comes when they got it, where they got it - Just because someone say's they spent $1600 doesn't mean they have.... BTW acer never had a laptop on the market with a retail price of $1600 in any year.
I just got myself the new acer g50v gaming laptop and I love it. New, warranty, complete, specs out the waazoooo and less then $800 and still one of the top rated laptops.
Hope I got you in time before you wasted your money, but thats just my opinion and please only take it as that.
