because expandable memory is an important selling point.   Roll Eyes
Because it is. Today's Newegg Shellshocker is a pair of 8GB SODIMMs, which I wouldn't be able to use in just any old laptop. Just sayin'.
but 16 GB of ram? I never run out of ram with 4 GB (paging file disabled).
Sorry if you can't use your system to its full capabilities. Virtual machines and RAMdisks take up lots of space in memory.

EDIT
That laptop is only expandable to 8GB memory, mine is expandable to 16GB.

Guys please stop derailing my thread, this is getting very annoying. Sad

I've been watching this thread since it was first posted. I was going to comment on how I found the same or similar laptop on ebay for less, but decided against it because I didn't want to hurt tizzy's chance of selling. (And hey, that's ebay, it happens). Tizzy could turn out to be a good Bitcoin Merchant if trolls would stop trying to hinder sales. And finally, Tizzytazzy, I suggest you ignore the price trolls and follow shadow383's advice to establish some credibility. Also, Edit your topic title, You're only selling one model.

I've set up a Suggestion thread concerning the issue of Thread derailing  Wink https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/suggestion-new-rule-concerning-disruption-of-sale-76663 I suggest those against this type of seller harassment put in their voice there.


a) a friend of a friend of a friend - sounds like scam
b) WU? Screams scam.
c) the title is a lie. It isn't 50% off.


Stop lying and we won't harass you. Don't like it. Set up your own website.

Just for the record, ferreting out scams is part of my RL world. When a duck stinks like this, I consider it a public service to point it out, and I typically do so in my harsh ass-holish manner, without concern for welcoming would be scammer to our world.

You don't want to read my stuff? There's a convenient ignore button right there under my name. You want to support this guy's sale? Buy a laptop and stop whining about social propriety. Just don't tell us when you get ripped off thru Western Union by this scammer- you bent over and invited him to have his way with you. No legitimate business person anywhere in the world uses Western Union as their preferred payment method. None, period.

All your doing is being arrogant and making ignorant posts.
He is totally right.

Let's see, what would be a better way to have approached this? Well it's your lucky day because I'm going to use my amazing deductive powers of common sense and tell you how to not come across as a scammer:

1-You have little/no feedback, so offer escrow, post pictures of the product you're going to sell next to a piece of paper with your forum username, the date, and "bitcointalk" on it.
2-Ideally, provide a link to heatware/ebay, showing positive feedback you've gathered.
3-If you're offering something this expensive, you're going to want to have a fairly good explanation of where they came from etc, with warranty details and the like, otherwise many will just assume scam/stolen.
4-If members point out the risk involved in dealing with you, find some way to mitigate that risk, rather than going around insulting people for refusing to hand over large quantities of irritrievable cash on the promise of cheap goods from an anonymous person with no feedback. You could, for example:
-Give out your phone number/other personally identifiable info via pm to interested buyers so they can contact you.
-Offer escrow (in fact there are many free escrow services right here on bitcointalk)
-Give links to your business website, so that people can look into it there.


Really people, suspicion towards 0-feedback anonymous bitcoin sales no more harms bitcoin trading than suspicion towards 0-feedback anonymous Western Union sales on ebay harms US dollar trading.

I own and operate a legitimate business and have also operated and worked with ones in the past. If you need some rep I also have been a member of WebHostingTalk (#1 hosting forum) since 2005 and have rep there. http://www.webhostingtalk.com/member.php?u=129054

So why are you trying to sell to us via a couple of different irreversible payment methods, and also on ebay with no rep?

Seriously, I think the majority of us have been offered the opportunity to buy cheap laptops through western union before... Usually from guys in nigeria...

Look where I'm at, look at the flamming. Everyone here is so unprofessional it isn't even funny. It is bitcoin, known for scammers. You don't like my deal or terms, fine, go flame someone else. If you want protection, go buy from eBay and use PayPal.

Damnit guys, why the fuck do you have to chase away the entrepreneurs? If no one wants it, STFU and it will die from infant mortality, but no need for all the bullshit.

This, every time a new vendor shows up they get flamed to hell. Shows how great this community is! Bitcoin definitely has a future with ass holes like you guys!

I've seen a lot of people having no problems selling stuff here without getting flamed. While being honest is great, coming out and saying "Hey! I got this laptop new for $750. It's your for only 950!" Just sounds bad.

Edit: brain wasn't producing coherent sentences.

My Dad's friend is able to get this computer brand new for $750 through his company.

http://www.bing.com/shopping/hp-probook-6460b-qy530us-14-led-notebook-core-i5-i5-2540m-2/p/CAE4B6AB81B013835005?q=hp+probook+6460b+i5+2.6+ghz&lpq=hp%20probook%206460b%20i5%202.6%20ghz&qpvt=hp+probook+6460b+i5+2.6+ghz&FORM=HURE

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in purchasing for $950 each.

I will only accept BTC through bit-pay or Western-Union. This might scream scam but this is just for my own protection. I own and operate a legitimate website hosting business - www.tizzytazzy.com, so running away with your money just isn't worth it to me.

Shipping would be free (anywhere around the world) and should arrive within one week of payment.





Hmmm a friend of your dad ?

First off that isn't the same laptop specs, and second -that is eBay.

You get a bigger hard drive, with a slighly slower processor for $200 less. Plus Tigerdirect has a mountain of rep, even if it is ebay. Not to mention a warranty (not completely sure on HP's warranty policy, but would you accept a DOA laptop for a warranty?)
