    Good evening everyone, I think it's time to move up from my "tiny" m11x to something easier on my eyes. I use this laptop 99% for DJing anymore, and I'm way too busy to enjoy games like I used to. I find myself playing on my 360 for the stuff I really want to play... minus LoL and WoW :(

    Anyways, what ways have people had luck selling their m11x for the value it's worth? I bought mine with credit and am still paying it off, I'd find it hard to get rid of and keep paying for ya know?

    (all factory speeds, never OC'd)

    Here's the specs...
    m11x R2
    Core i7 640UM
    8GB RAM DDR3
    nVidia 335m GT
    256GB Samsung SSD
    Upgraded WiFi from stock Dell chip to Intel 6300
    Vista Home Premium

    Scratchless and still looks brand new, been taken care of. Hinges replaced because I was afraid of a future problem and Dellienware took care of me. Only minor wear on the stickers on the bottom from my lap and tables.

    Probably better to have posted this in the NBR Marketplace under the Price Check section but no biggie.

    m11x r2 | eBay

    Some of them are still selling for 899$ on ebay w/o an SSD. I would personally keep the SSD to put in the next system you get ;)

    I would definitely keep the SSD. I do not think you will ever get your money back for that if you offered it for sale with your M11x.

    Thanks, I might hold onto the SSD, that's a good idea. 900 bucks sounds good enough for me... that's about where I'm at... I hope... haha

    Also Loved it, fast. Optimus and video mixing is annoying, but once squared away it's good. I just want to go to a 14 or 15 inch screen. Might be mac time...
