I suppose it's a case of buyer beware. I see what you're saying although I still don't think the seller was entirely honest... I doubt he really didn't turn it on.
Gutted at the lost cash! :(
Well I took 'mint condition other than the screen' to mean that it was fine other than the screen, I think a lot of people would take that meaning including all of the other bidders who bid up to nearly £150.
an honest description would have stated 'will not boot'
Dang. I should have been more careful, the guy said he didn't have the time or knowledge to repair yet his most recent purchases include
*NEW* 14.1" eMachines D620 WXGA LCD Screen Glossy (#150541111467
So I'm thinking he probably attempted some sort of fix (although it isn't the right...
Bought a laptop on the bay with a cracked screen (a PB Easynote ts-44) with the intention of replacing the screen and having a cheap laptop.
The laptop was described as being in "mint condition" other than the cracked screen.
It arrived today and won't boot, turning it on results in a bit...
i have the nb200, runs windows 7 very well, it's a good little machine. battery life with the 6 cell is not amazing though, but i would certainly recommend it/
Personally I'm just ignoring them at the moment, I no longer live at the same address or own/keep the car in question in any case. Amusingly 'Graham White Solicitors' is based at almost exactly the same address as Roxburghe. Probably the same set of porta cabins...
The advice generally given on...
I had a similar experience almost a year ago. The company, Vehicle Control Services of Sheffield (which is registered to the same address as Excel Parking) went away for a while but I now have a letter from Roxburghe debt collectors and a new one from solicitor Michael Sobell - who trades under...
haha.. well the insurance is low .. it's hard to know what to go for I would prefer a golf/focus/audi a3 but they are more expensive and the insurance is higher
Not bothered about interior it is a 14 year old car after all! More attracted to it as it sounds like it has been well looked after, not driven hard by some chav etc.
A caravan toilet is in her selling history so maybe it was used to pull a caravan at some point.. problem?
I am trying to buy a cheap car to use as a run around and occasional longer trips. I want to spend as little as possible (postgrad student) but obviously need something that works.
I found this and think that it looks like a good buy...
Hi yeah wireless works fine with no additional drivers.. I have black nb 200 10g
There is a bios update out for the american models but nothing for us so far.
Got a Toshiba NB200 recently.. nice little netbook and I upgraded the memory from 1 to 2gb which has helped it cope with running multiple programs a little better.
However.. it is a little slow especially on startup and loading programs, the fsb is only 533 so the memory is downclocked from...
I'm trying to install the windows 7 rc onto my toshiba nb200 netbook, which currently has a poorly performing version of os x onto it.
I used OS X to create a bootable USB stick with 7 on it, using these commands:
the disk shows up as it should, with the files extracted onto it and Zero...
My Macbook struggles to cope with some of the things that I want to do on it - these aren't major things - just photos, music, watching videos etc.
Additionally, I fancied having something even smaller that I can more easily carry around to lectures and things at uni. So decided to sell the...
Does anyone know how Cinema 4D runs on the new Macbooks, the 13" Unibody one's with 9400 graphics? My girlfriend is a designer and is thinking of getting one, but she needs to be able to do some of her work on it outside of the office and doesn't know much about whether the hardware will cope.
