Gaming would this be a great deal

[daProphet]

one of my friends is going to sell me a laptop for 500
it is a Toshiba a215 and she installed Microsoft office 2007 on it and it is only 1 week old
the reason she is selling is because she wanted a different model and her parents got her this one
just tell me if you think this is a good deal or not
comes with everything that came in the box

If it's a week old, couldn't she just return it?

Well you said 250GB HD and this one has 160GB, I'm pretty sure it's different.

Do you get the Office '07 packaging and license?

If so, then yes, its quite the good deal (as that alone will fetch 100USD+).

 

[daProphet]

yes i get office 07 license and package

 

[Salamantis]

yes i get office 07 license and package

I'd say go for it

 

[Urza]

Buy it, then sell the Office 07.

Well if you really want a laptop, you should definetely get that one, it looks like a great deal for $500.

400USD if he sell Office.

[daProphet]

He should've sold it for $600 + $100 for Office.
$200 would make building a new PC a lot easier wouldn't it?
