So I just got a Sony VAIO PCG-7A2L from one of my friends who decided he didnt need it any more...
The screen is broken and theres "something wrong" with the hard drive.

How much do you think I could sell it for?

Well a new screen is about $110 and a hard drive is anywhere from like $25 to $160. So I guess just knock off the average of those 2 from its new price, and then take off some more because it's used.

It was $900 or so to begin with...so I should think $300 or so?

I'd say start at around $500 - 600 and see who is interested, and I guess don't go less than like $250 if you want to make a profit.

yeah sorry bro..when you buy a laptop it instantly looses 60-70% value...throw in a broken screen and a hard drive (which can't be replaced in some laptops without replacing everything..if you can even find one)..and your kinda screwed...if your lucky you can sell it for 50 bucks

Ya I think at this point I'm just going to keep it and use it for a scenario prop.
For like a "capture the intel" game or something...

Thanks for all the help, guys.

Thread lock please cheers
