    Why the guessing game?
    Or are you trying to sell it or something?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54,943 ✭✭✭✭Headshot

    im buying it second hand

    What price is it going for?
    How old is it?
    what will it be used for?
    what condition is it in?

    I'd be thinking €450, and it's not a "very good" machine are far as spec goes. Not bad, but not fantastic, i need more to go on as far as what it's going to be used for.

    I'm looking at buying a dell1525 myself, have you looked at dell outlet, they have 80euro off and free delivery at the moment. prices of the 1525 range from 365euro upwards (including vat + delivery)

    to get the updated price tick the box beside:

    Buy Now Save Voucher [price -EUR 80.32] [FONT=arial,helvetica]-SPECIAL OFFER[/FONT]

    http://www.dell.ie/do

    650euro seems a bit too much for the specs you've listed

    That's a crazy price imho
    I just spec'd this up on dell.ie, a vostro 1510, brand new, better spec and for the same price,
    BASE Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T8100 (2.1 GHz, 3 MB L2 Cache, 800 MHz FSB)
    OPERATING SYSTEM Genuine Windows Vista™ Business - English
    SUPPORT SERVICES 1Yr Basic Warranty - Next Business Day Included -
    LCD 15.4" Widescreen WXGA (1280 x 800) Display with Anti-Glare Coating
    INTEGRATED WEBCAM Glossy Black without Camera
    MEMORY 2048MB (1x2048) 667MHz DDR2 Dual Channel
    HARD DRIVE 250GB (5400rpm) SATA Hard Drive

    Just to note, dell have €50 off any machine above €299. So with that €50 off that machine comes to € 664.29. Brand new, has dedicated graphics, better processor, more hard drive space.

    The machines on outlet DO NOT INCLUDE VAT, and the cheapest i can see is 411(excluding VAT) for a low spec machine


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25 dropes


    but did you add to cart to get the 80 euro discount?

    after you add to cart, click the box beside 'Buy Now Save Voucher [price -EUR 80.32] -SPECIAL OFFER

    it then gives the reduced price.

    im looking at one for 365 now including vat and delivery


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,157 ✭✭✭✭Alanstrainor


    no i didn't, but it comes to 417.31 including VAT when you do, and the reason i can't find that one for 360 is because you have it in your cart


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54,943 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    im thinking of offering him 550 for the laptop

    would that be a good price

    Alanstrainor - didnt notice your reply, sorry


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25 dropes


    somewhere around 500 - 550 would seem ok based on prices on dell website

    Would you be hoping to play games on this?
    If so then, it would not handle anything recent, and you cannot upgrade the graphics. I would still offer 450. 550 would not be that great a price at all.
