Up for sale is an Acer Aspire Revo AR1600, pretty much brand new. While it is open, I got it for Christmas and I really don't have much use for it. I would return it, but I'm pretty sure I can't (ordered from Newegg)

I know this is TWW, but here's where I'm coming from: this thing is basically brand new (I even removed all the spam-ware for you ) and I'd like to get close to retail.

Product can be found here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883103228&Tpk=aspire%20revo

I'm asking $200 for it, which is $10 less than you would pay on Newegg and I'll deliver it. Again, I know it's TWW but I figure it's worth a shot, especially if one of you guys were planning on getting one anyways. Thanks!

Yeah, I was going to purchase one of these as well after reading the lifehacker article. Given that it has been 200 since at least 11/09 I would feel a bit cheated if I bought one now though. Still a neat toy.

GREAT FOR A COUCH COMPUTER

I wasn't trying to threadcrap, if I had a spare 200 bucks and no xbox or dual head video card I would have one already. I just know my netbook significantly depreciated when these new chips came out and I went through some amount of buyers remorse. And I had the NC10 like the first week they were released on newegg. After 4 months I would just start teeter tottering on waiting for a price drop or the next model.

That said, good luck in your classifieds endeavor sir.

$75

1/18/2010 6:34:26 PM

150$

1/18/2010 6:50:13 PM

Getting there...

1/18/2010 7:52:08 PM

i made you a damn good offer via PM. if it's not good enough then tell me what you'll take.

1/18/2010 8:23:28 PM

what did you offer, like 165?

'pretty much brand new' to most classified [antonym]patrons[/antonym] is terms for full retail with a free shipping coupon.


that was, however somewhat of a threadcrap.

i think 160 was my first offer. he said no.. offered a little more and no reply yet.

figured that was damn good for tww

1/18/2010 9:06:25 PM

doesn't matter that it's almost new

it isn't new

it lost at least 25% of its value when the OP took it out of the box and fucked with it

he should feel lucky to get 150 for it

^ On TWW any serious bid over $5 is lucky no matter what the item in question is.

25% is a little high, but yeah you're right.

so, nevermind on my last offer. i was serious..but the price is getting too high the more i think about it.
