Go back to your original link in the OMG thread.  The winning bidder and runner-up are now listed as “no longer a member” .. guess they really were fraudulent accounts that bid that auction up by 50%.

The UK always seems to get huge prices for laptops especially subnotebooks. My friend in Exeter (UK) juts about buys a laptop here in Oz everytime she comes home for a holiday as they are so much cheaper (imagine if she ever got loose in Japan! smile)

Since they are so much dearer new they tend to get great prices compared to the US for used.

I dont know about the UK and US but theres no tax to be payed on USED stuff over here (Germany).

However. 800 is a good price in my opinion. But keep in my:

Yesterday I saw someone selling a TR on Ebay for 1500 USD!!!
Great deal? The seller made the deal of his life.
He made clear that the screen is damaged and need to be replaced.
Dont know how he managed to sell for that price smile
