    hi all!

    I just won an auction on ebay. The deal is 600 for a m11x R1 - SU7300, 4gb ddr 3, 160gb hhd

    seems a good deal...but it a use laptop, nothing wrong with it....the question is should I buy it? or Should I wait for the holidays for any kind of rebates or offers...

    I need a new gaming portable laptop, and it seems to be a good deal, since I was thinking about buying an ASUS 1215N.

    Thanks in advance

    I think it's a good deal. I sold mine to a friend of mine for $650 (r1/4gb/250gb). Even with discounts on Dell Outlet, I doubt it would get any better than that.

    You made your choice when you bought it ,so unless you back out of the sale by not paying the seller
    (not a good idea) there is nothing really to talk about

    @ headphones989

    Correct , posting links to your for sale listing is against forum rules

    Oh ok thanks. Sorry, I got kind of confused - people were talking about two different listings in this thread. Now I re-read it.

    ah ok ty, didn't know... and LWK, you won the auction, therefore you are legally bound to pay it (when you bidded it should've said something along those lines as well i think). * unless if there are some special extenuating circumstances or if you contact the seller and he/she agrees to call off the purchase... but otherwise gl with your new laptop, sounds like a good deal

    If you won the auction you are obligated to buy it per eBay's terms.
