[LIB]retto prices
Date: Sat, 13 Apr 2002 18:11:50 +0700 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [LIB]retto prices I'm being asked by someone who's just seen my Libretto how much they are. I don't have a clue as I bought mine new over two years ago while passing through Hong Kong and I've never had to think about used prices. Now I could go research this from scratch, and I will if necessary, but can I first ask the question here - I'm just looking for ballpark estimates in order to give a very rough guide for a basic Libretto in full working order - standard spec HDD, with the FDD, replicator, power supply, and one functioning battery - nothing missing and with no extras - how much is ballpark? E-bay kinda USD price, I guess... So, if you're au fait with this, having recently bought a used Libretto or researched a potential purchase, would you be so kind as to point me in the right direction - how much did you pay or how much would you pay - if you bought something non-standard (say without the FDD or with extras), just have a guess and add/deduct the relevant amount. I'm perfectly happy to get replies with just numbers and no text! :-) 50 = ~ 70 = ~ 100 = ~ 110 = ~ TVM indeed! If anyone cares to comment (numerically) on 1150/1100/1100v, TVM for that too... ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

Re: [LIB]retto prices
Date: Sat, 13 Apr 2002 20:16:19 +0800 From: Raymond [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [LIB]retto prices 50 = ~ I sold my L50 a couple of months ago to a relative for $600AUD ($300USD) with the following, * items are what I consider to come with a 'stock L50 with standard accessories': - 2gb hard drive - 2 new battery packs (1 still sealed) plus * 1 older pack (good for 1:30 careful but continuous use) * Docking bar - Advanced port replicator * AC adapter - Overclocked to 100MHz - Fully installed with Win95 and Linux * All manuals * No missing pixels, no bad sectors on hard drive, no flatspots or cracks in the case, no scratches. But missing: * FDD I'd say the larger hard drive, APR and 2 new packs would have pushed the price about $150AUD based on eBay prices (deflated to take into account the fact that its bundled) but that the missing FDD would have dragged the price about $50AUD bringing my estimated 'stock L50 with standard accessories' price to about $500AUD ($250USD). I might have been able to get a better price if I eBay'ed it but remember to deflate the price appropriately to account for shipping, handling and general bother. I didn't sell the FDD because I needed it for my new L100 (but it keeps getting borrowed!). 100 = ~ I purchased my current L100 again a couple of months ago through the local community paper for a total of $875AUD (about $440USD) with the following, again the * indicates what I consider to be standard accessories or attributes: * 2gb hard drive - upgraded to 64MB RAM * AC adapter - (partially fried) APR * High capacity battery pack (almost 2 hours careful but continuous use, I'm told this came standard with L100's sold in the US though) * No missing pixels, no bad sectors on hard drive, no flatspots or cracks in case, no scratches. But missing: * FDD * Docking bar * Some manuals I'd say the cost of the missing docking bar would be more than compensated by the APR ... apart from the left hand PCMCIA slot it seems fine (right hand PCMCIA slots and USB ports work) so the price would have dropped perhaps $25AUD if it were with the standard docking bar instead of the APR. Again the missing FDD would have pushed the price about $50AUD so that brings my estimated 'stock L100 with standard accessories' price to $900AUD ($450USD). Again, perhaps it would have been a little more expensive if purchased through an international auction again due to SH and general bother. Of course, these prices are what I would consider reasonable in Australia as of about 2 months ago ... looking at current prices for libbys in eBay, these would seem quite reasonable (although I wouldn't say they were the very best you could do if you were able to take advantage of the 'US only' sales) ...

My real question though is.what's with all the stickers I see all over Puget Sound area Libretto's? Were they once owned by Skate-heads? #8~} My problem is that I just simply don't have any extra money to spare, except for this little bit. Mine has a moderate amount of accessories (mini port replicator, full port replicator, ac adapter, floppy drive, PCMCIA 56k v.90 modem (got the cable for it today, works just fine, I'm using an external USR 56k now, I think I'll keep that ;) ), and I'll throw in it's leather carrying case. I was hoping to keep that, it's a targus, but someone might like it.) and I don't mind one having little to no accessories. I have a separate battery charger for a 100/110 that I picked up years ago thinking it'd work with mine (store hand't a clue) but it didn't. I don't even need a floppy with the the 100ct or even a workign battery, just the ac adapter and some port replicator, and I'll be happy. And, might I remind again, fo rthose who are not quite getting it, why I'm not offering full proce, YOU GET TO KEEP YOUR BIG 100CT HARD DRIVE, I put it into the 70ct so you don't loose any HD space, don't have to re-install programs, nothing, just a wham-bam-thank you man job. In and out in 5 minutes and you get $100 cash (if you're in the seattle area) and a slightly lower model of libretto with some cool accessories, probably more than you have now. If another deal of mine goes through, you'll even get a brand new battery pack. Unguaranteed. I emailed a guy in Seattle who bought a PA2452U battery pack and wanted to force it to work on his 110ct. He said it wouldn't work, so I'm getting it super cheap. I just have to touch base with him to get it. But he hasn't returned emails lately. I may just call him and stop by Monday. Oh well. If I could offer full price of $150, or whatever, for the trade, you best believe I get your 2gb, or bigger, drive in your 100ct. I'm just too broke to offer any more money, and I figure someone has a 100ct somewhere and is hurting for money far more than I and can't bare to part with the cool factor of a libretto. I've decided to extend the offer to Sunday night, then I give up. This just sucks, I kinda had my hopes up for it, but oh well. Screw it. I think I'll just sell this horrid thing off first chance I get on ebay or something. _ _ _ __ __ __ __ _ ___ THE /_ _// ___// ___// // // |/ // _ //__/ / / / _/_ / /__ / _ //// // /___ /_/ /////_//_//_/\_////__/ ___ ___ ___ ___ _ _ __ __ /__// _ \ / _ \ / \ / ___// _ // |/ / ___ / // // //_// /\ // /_ // // /// /__////_/\_\/_//_//////_/\_/ ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.
