Special Agent Mukity-Muck Whats in Charge Round Here
Yep I did. Gonna mother F them on every website I go on and send them all the links. Pretty sure they will be done on ebay very soon.
HIJACK ALERT, HIJACK ALERT...
speaking of facebook, did you know Stangnet is on there? Kinda dumb they dont have a like button on here anywhere.
Now you know why I try to limit eBay purchases to $40 or less - less if at all possible. The $40 isn't pocket change, but it is small enough that it won't hurt that much if I get a bad deal.
As far as laptops go, they have put a lot of money in my pockets - why? I fix computers for a living, and laptops break 5 times more often than desktop PC's. Hard drives go bad, LCD display screens crack or develop bad spots, the keys fall off the keyboards, they run half as fast as a desktop with the same processor speed and memory. I worked 10 1/2 years for a major bank and laptops helped keep me employed. Lots of little screws, tiny parts and snap together pieces (or maybe snap off and break pieces). It's a fun job if you like challenges and have a good set of magnifying glasses.
As far as buying a used laptop, find a computer store in your area that has a good reputation. Some are like the used car lots we all hear horror stories about. Avoid the small netbook devices - they are so cheap that if they break, you will pay more than it is worth to get it fixed. Stick with Dell, Compaq, & HP brands and you'll do better than with other makes.

I stay away from eBay at all cost. What good is it to save money if you have to go through a headache like this? I'd rather pay a bit more and buy from a reputable company.

Buying used computer stuff on ebay is a huge gamble. I've been through this bs myself. Glad you got it straightened out.
