    Well ive decided that I want to sell on my Inspiron 1520 and wanted to know how much it is worth now they have stopped selling them.

    the specs are as follows :-
    2.2 ghz core 2 duo
    2gb ram
    250gb hdd
    256mb 8600M GT
    bluetooth and wifi
    dvd+/-rw
    15.4 trulife glossy 1650x1080
    midnight blue + 2mp webcam

    Im not too sure to be honest but I was thinking of atleast £800.. Am I on the right lines or way off?..

    Don't know about the UK, but in the US, the 1520 is still available, and a similarly speced one is $1.4k before coupons, so that would be around $1.1k with coupons, subtract 10%, and I would ask for ~$1K USD.

    Is it used? If so, I would knock some more off the price. If people can purchase a similar system, new, for around $900-1000, they will probably opt to do that over a used one.
