if you are looking to trade in your laptop or sell it, I would advice not to unless
you have a half decent store
there's 2 stores I've been to now, which have sent off price requests for my laptop.. both times they have sent the price request with lesser specs than my laptop has so they can buy it for cheaper..I find this very disturbing.. first of all one store typed in I had an i3 2328 instead of i5 3230m..how did I know this? once the price request has come through, the item will appear on their site.. before the price request my model was not on their site.. but it now was..but with the specs as i3 which they never made in my model..also the price they offered me was the same as the 'i3' spec..so ok I declined their price of £230 trade in, knew what they was up to..I took it to another CEX thinking they can't all be like this..ok this time I get offered £270 the next day..they sent in another price request.. I had initially thought they got it right this time till I checked their site they had wrote I had windows 7 instead of windows 8(even thought full well knowing it was w8 after they asked me 3 times then checked for themselves)..which changes the price by quite abit.. as the laptop with lesser specs on their with w8 is going for £313 trade in but they had put mine as windows 7 to get the price cheap..
they still have it ' testing ' it after they 'test' it I am going to decline trading it in.
just a word of warning guys.. thought id let you know how sly these people are.
