How much can I sell my laptop with a broken LCD monitor for?

Question

It's a Sager laptop that I paid more than $1500 for. Exactly 1 year and 2 months after I bought it, the screen stopped working and became black/white-ish. Convenient since my warranty ran out after a year. I was so upset at what happened despite the fact that I took good care of the laptop that I just want to get rid of it now. I paid almost 150$ to send it to xotic pc/sager to see if they can fix it and they responded saying I had to pay $400 so they could replace the screen. Clearly I decided not to get it fixed and instead just bought a new laptop (not from xotic pc or sager brand).

Now I've used eBay as a buyer but never as a seller. If anyone has any ideas on how much I could get for it, or where I should go to sell it, I'd really really appreciate it. I know at least the graphics card in this laptop is really good. I'm not looking to get a $1000 for it or anything, but a couple hundred would make this horrible wound bleed a little less.

Answer 2

Broken Lcd Monitor

Answer 3

On average, anything that makes the laptop useless as far as a screen goes makes the maximum price about $250. You could sell it successfully for parts and almost working, but don't get too ambitious.

Answer 4

Just wanted to recommend oggus.com

I have helped people " who cannot afford" computing, refurbish old systems donated by schools and oggus.com has really enabled me to give these people good software that would normally be out of their reach ( I don't charge for my service,) just thought I would pass the word on
