Hello all, I'm new to the forums. I just bought a new notebook and
am looking at selling my pcg fxa-36 to a co-worker. The HDD does is dead, so considering that how much should I ask for it? I have never sold a notebook before so any info would be very appreciated. Thanks.

What are the specs like??
I always like to do it this way...whatever I originally paid, start out with half that amount. Then I start deducting for issues: scratches (-$20), dead pixels (-$15), broken keys (-$35), non-operating ports (-$40), etc. etc. Then I start adding for any upgrades or equipment I'm including. So If I maxed out the memory, I try to recoup at least half of what I spent. If I added another (better) HD, again, I try to recoup at least half what I shelled out. Usually this gives a good starting point for negotiations. Of course, you knock off or charge up according to what you feel. I'm not going to knock off $35 for ONE broken key. Hell, I'd try to fix it first and if I couldn't...maybe knock off like $5. -
Check Ebay because I see them going for $400 with a brocken LCD. I had one till recently when I bought the S260 and was looking for a doner system so I could fix the CD-rom. If the HD is the only thing wrong with it you should be able to get $400 on ebay.
How much do you think a PCG FXa-36 is worth?
