    Hi Guys,

    I am about to create an ad for ebay to sell a laptop which I have no use for. It's a decent spec and in imaculate condition, I am not sure what price to ask for on ebay.

    It's a Sony Vaio Athlon XP 1400+, 512MB RAM, 20GB HDD, DVD etc.

    What do you think a decent asking price for this laptop would be??

    I have no idea, Sony have delisted it as they have a policy of changing stock every three months!! It's crazy I paid over 1200 quid for it initially, argh!

    About 12 - 18 months, the depreciation value for computing equipment is crazy.

    Probably more like 24 months now I think about it, damn how time flies, still remember taking it out the box and inflicting Windows XP on it :)

    350 sounds a lot to me for that.

    OK, maybe my mistake then, but that seems very low spec for a one-year-old Vaio. But I know nothing so um I'll get my coat.
