Values of My Dells

[Sam]

I have two dells, one I paid 3k for a little less than a year ago and one I paid 2.6k for in Feb. What are the rough sale values of these computers now?
Thanks!

[sniper4usmc]

[MrBlond]

You'd have to list the specs of each.

[JDay]

Couldn't tell you without the exact specs.

[atto]

We need specs!

[snypr]

give us the service tag and we can look up the specs, I would do it in a PM tho...

I wouldn't pay more than a couple hundred for either... computer technology advances so fast that if it isn't obsolete in a few months, it certaining isn't worth the equivalent to the performance of a new computer that can be purchased for 50% of the prices you indicate.

[JDay]

The first dell is a Studio 1737:

That's worth about $500.

[sirgiles]

dell adamo

check this out.

http://www.dell.com/content/topics/topic.aspx/global/products/adamo/topics/en/us/adamo-onyx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19

unfortunately, the price has significantly dropped even for a new one.

the i5 and i7 can now be had for $600-800.

[JDay]

Core 2 Duo laptops go for $200-$400 on eBay, the more expensive ones being business class machines.

[patriot_man]

Computers don't keep their value. New graphics cards and CPUs and technology coming out every so months just keeps lowering the value.

[Corbin Dallas]

Sam, Let me summarize for you.

Dell Studio 1737

Win Vista Home Premium x64
2.67 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
8GB Ram
Dual 320GB SATA Harddrives
DVDRW - Blueray Disc
Memory slot (SD/MMC/XD)
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650
Bluetooth
Gigabit Ethernet
802.11 a/g/n Wireless adapter
Firewire
Webcam
Biometric finger print reader


NEW from Dell: Approximately $1400 +/-

Used value in excellent condition $500-800 depending on additional software and buyer. (PS, if you put Win7 in the machine along with Office 07 or Office 10, you'll attract more buyers)


As far as the Dell Adamo, which one did you buy? The description you put up is cryptic at best... However, these are NEW to the market and VERY VERY well made. You may be able to get CLOSE to your purchase price, unless you paid too much for it.

Depending on model, the Adamo sells between 800-2000
