Default my laptop

Hi

Wanting to sell my laptop to fund the ipad2 i'm after

am i going to get any good money for it!?
Acer Aspire 5315 series
15.4" screen
intel celeron
vista basic
was 1gb ram, i changed it to 2gb ram
cant remember if 40 or 80gb HD
battery lasts about 1 hour on full performance (which is about right)
no cracks on screen etc, in pretty fine condition actually!
charger works
only down side that i know of is the charger wire has lost its 'grippyness' in the rear where it plugs in so if you have it on your lap& keep moving it has tendencies to fall out
Other than that a great bit of basic laptop.
Have seen them for £149.99 second hand but is that realistic?!?

in a nutshell, no. You might get 100 for it if you advertise as far and wide as possible. Battery should last 2.5 hours plus when new and the celeron processor is a budget low performing version.

it is about 2 years old, was thinking £80-100 at a push!

thanks for the heads up!

These days that's not worth much at all.

not expecting much! hence why i'm asking, if its not worth more than £60/£70 then i wont sell it as i can keep it as a spare or give it to my parents! I do not have to sell it, just didn't want it sat there if it was worth something to someone. At that sort of price its worth more just to keep hold of.

cheers for the input
