Hey team - I have a bunch of Surface Pro 4/5's to move along. All have come out of use in a commercial environment.

 

This is the first lot but I imagine most will be the same. Had a quick look on TradeMe to gauge but let me know if you think I'm way off.

 

All come with black type covers and Surface Dock 1's but no original chargers or boxes (At this stage... still trying to find out where they went)

 

 

 

Pickup Hamilton or free shipping.

I'm keen on line 3 (Pro 4 / 8 GB / 256 with minimal scratches).

 

But when you say come with dock but no charger, do you mean that they can be charged only in the dock? Or not charged at all without getting another charger.

I will take either 4/5, whichever has the least amount of visible physical wear/least amount of physical wear with type cover as well.

 

Thanks!

@mdf - the docks charge them through the surface connector + add USB, dispalyport, ethernet etc. The only disadvantage over the original charger is they are bulkier so not as portable.

 

Surface Dock | Microsoft Accessories

 

@timbosan - covers look used on the material parts but the plastic keys look good.

 

@dacraka - I'll put aside the cleanest one and PM you a bit later :)

 

 

 

Added a couple of pictures for reference.
