I bought this exceptional Canon printer about 1 year ago, and it works very well. I have used it for less than 100pgs of printing. It has been kept under a dust cover the entire year.

It comes with box, manual, USB cable, power cable, etc. I am moving and don’t want to take it with me. Call Mike if interested: 089 216 5028 Location: Bangkok it’s NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests

Second hand laptop prices are always discounted from their list price. Their original list price! You couldn’t find a laptop priced for less than a grand a few years ago. A company that bought a bunch of cheap laptops a few years back for a $1000 each and is now upgrading them to new laptops will offer them to employees at 50% off. The employees think it’s a great bargain and pay $500 for obsolete junk (often with the software removed if the company is conscientious) when they could be buying a brand new laptop for the same price that’s several generations better. I’m not exaggerating here, it happens all the time.

The same thing happens with the reconditioned notebooks sold over the Internet or on ebay. The seller says, “List price $1,699″ or “I paid $2,349″ but they’re talking about a retail laptop prices without rebates that are three or five years old. Look carefully at the capabilities of these notebooks. If they were really high-end at the time, the CPU speed might be a little higher than the $500 new laptop with rebates, but it probably won’t have as much memory, may not have a DVD player, if it has wireless, it will be an external adapter, the battery will be on its last legs, and the screen will have dead pixels. The model that “listed” at $1,699 will be promoted as a steal at $795, and the $2,349 laptop (with “$1,000 of software I added”) will have a minimum bid of $1200. They may get it to, but not from you (I hope). You should be buying a tremendous new laptop for that kind of money, with a new warrantee, and all the latest bells and whistles for loading your digital camera film, etc.

 

Determine where you will buy your computer. There are four options: eBay, Craigslist, local dealers, and straight from the manufacturer. Buying refurbished models from the manufacturer or a local dealer is often more expensive, but they’ll come with attached warranties that will calm your worried hearts. The remaining two options are a bit trickier, but also cheaper. If you plan to use eBay, make sure to find a seller with no less than 100% feedback rating. If the computer arrives broken, a seller with a flawless rating will happily allow a return in order to prevent negative feedback—that’s the beauty of eBay. For a Craigslist exchange, make sure to arrange a public meeting spot like a coffee shop where you can inspect the computer fully before purchasing.

 

Buy a laptop that has its original “recovery CD”. What some sellers do is wipe the drive and put Linux on it because they lost the original Windows disc, i.e. “recovery CD”. This sucks because in reality Windows may run best on that laptop over Linux (due to proprietary hardware with proprietary drivers). The first thing you should do with any used laptop is immediately do a “slow” format of the hard drive (this will mark any bad sectors) then pop in the recovery disc and install the provided Windows OS. If you like it, stick with it. If not, wipe it out and put on Linux.
