Hi everyone

 

Got this laptop to get rid of, its only 6 to 7 months old, barely been used and well looked after. Comes with a nice bag, a wired and a wireless tech inc mouse, $600 and I'll cover the shipping cost out of that

 

 

 

HP 15.6 inch AMD Athlon 3050u 8GB RAM 128GB SSD

When it was being used, it was mainly used for coding, no games or intense graphics or CPU usage. Has been sitting unused for near on 2 weeks, would have put it up soon but I was waiting for this forum to be unlocked.

 

Original Bought from Noel Leemings.

Hi, this is not meant as an attack on you at all, just thought I'd mention the CPUs in those notebooks are pretty poor - they can barely get out of their own way. That, coupled with the 128GB SSD, 1366x768 screen, no Ethernet (I think?) & 1x1 wireless does mean there are limited uses for such a machine. IMO the new price is too much for what the notebook is. If you bought an ex-lease business grade i5 notebook for what you spent on this new (even a few hundred less), it would massively run rings around it. That Athlon is roughly equivalent to a 6/7 year old i5 U series CPU in most areas.

 

 

 

Happy to be proven wrong if someone will buy it, but I would think ~$350 would be top dollar for something like this.

Remember that is comes with a great tech bag and 2 mice one being bluetooth, plus its going to cost me at least 80 if I am lucky to send this, so 450 - 500 is a good range considering the postage costs, $450 is the lowest I would except though.
