It's a bit like saying, '1 Lady Owner' when selling a car. Wouldn't you want to know where your machine is coming from?

Thanks,

How old are these things?

Seems like you're over-valuing many of these.

Hedge Funds are well known for buying the best equipment money can buy, so it also says a lot about the quality of the machine.

Value? What is Value? Sounds like something Warren Buffet would do.

A trade needs two sides to settle. The offer is the offer.

If you're interested, make me an Bid. And we will see if we can agree.

The machine is 1 years old and still has 2 years of Next Day Warranty left.

The monitors are about 2 years old, though I don't know for sure.

The keyboard is about a couple of weeks old.

Thanks,

You do know that "No selling allowed. Any form of selling is unacceptable," right?

You mean on T2W?

I thought this was the 'For Sale & Wanted' thread?

Yeah don't worry, it's just a guideline, it's not really enforced

And there was me thinking I'd damaged my pristine rookie record

Hi Tony,

If you want the whole package, you can have it for £4'000.

You would ofcourse need to cover courier costs.

Thanks for your interest.

Hi
I think that's too high bearing in mind they will have been in constant use since they were purchased. I think my offer is fair and they can paid for and collected this week.

Offer dropped to £1500 , a new one with same spec sold for £770 a few days ago.

If you think you can get this machine for that price, then you are misguided to say the least.

I can guarantee that machine never sold for £770, ask the seller.

Do you have any idea how much a second hand X5690 processor costs? You couldn't even get that for less than £1k.

This machine is obviously out of your league as you appear clueless, it's like bidding £5k for a Bentley, on the basis that it has been driven by a Premier League player.

 

[NVP]

any advance on £770 ?............this is fun

[tonym]

It says £770 winning bid ?

 

[Hedge Fund Wizard]

Yes but if you message the seller and ask him if he sold it at that price, he will tell you he didn't.

As there is no way he would let it go for that cheap.

That was an error with no reserve price being put in, I know, because I have asked.

 

[tonym]

Ok I see so you were the seller ?

From the ebay link under question and answer

Q: Hi, If set, are the BIOS, Supervisor, HDD & windows passwords known? Does the unit have any defects. Does it have its keys to lock/unlock its access panel? Kind regards, Shaun. 26-May-13
A: Hi, I've run the machine to test it. There are no passwords installed or active that restrict its operations. All settings are factory settings. It as brand new, both keys are attached to the workstation. There are no defects that I am aware of and if there were any, the case, motherboard, psu are all covered by the 3 year year warranty, of who their are 2 years left.the warranty follows the machine not the owner, Thanks, Raz

I'm assuming there aren't 2 Raz's with the same machine.
