Hey! Not sure if I'm posting in the right section... anybody has any ideas how much can I ask for this laptop and where/what is the best way to try and sell it?

I bought it this August from PC Specialist co uk Shop, but I'm now buying a powerful PC and I got a second laptop too, so I don't really need two laptops and a PC. Thanks for any tips!

Is the warranty transferable?

If yes, then maybe £1000, but that is optimistic.

If no, then maybe £900, again that is optimistic.

I'm not in the UK so I don't know of any places to sell it other than eBay. You can also try Amazon.

I recommend removing all passwords. That includes the BIOS password and Hard Drive password if you have set them up in the BIOS. Otherwise you are going to have a really pissed off buyer.

My suggestion is to search for your laptop in used condition on e-bay.
Then filter by completed auctions and you will see in green what similar laptops actually sold for.
