Buying W3J

Hi,

A few week ago, my W3V have a LCD damage and it's expensive to replace. I looked on ebay and see a W3J for a couple 100s than the cost of LCD repair. I really love my W3V. It's my first laptop - first love. And it's also the reason why it's hard for me to look for other notebook brand. My dilemna is buying used Asus W3J w/o any warranty or buying a new laptop.

I'm thinking of getting safeware insurance for laptop. Any experiences? I also look at buying insurance through credit card company for a notebook? But im not sure if it's good for second hand item. Anyone know

Also, is there any place that still sell a new Asus W3J with manufacture warranty?

 

Even on eBay, a W3J is still going to set you back $600-800 for a used one.

You might want to do a bit more research on LCDs. You'll be surprised to find that they are fairly interchangeable. Just be sure to ask sellers for the exact dimensions so they physically fit and pictures of the connectors.

A used W3J could still very well be under warranty, just ask the seller. And, to the best of my knowledge, you can't buy them new anymore, at least not in the U.S., I've looked pretty hard for a seller still offering them.

 

No, they are EOL for almost a year now...
