What Would You Pay For A Broken Gaming Laptop

[Laquer Head]

Yeah, I'm serious..

What would you pay for a broken Asus laptop?

Available is an ASUS G73Jw gaming laptop, which was improperly 'upgraded' by a novice and now has several problems. From what I can tell, the machine could probably be fixed by soldering wire back on mainboard--my belief is a carelessly executed RaM upgrade cause multiple wires to be severed.

The computer fully functions, but you need to use external mouse, keyboard, speakers, and media card reader.




What Works:

-Screen
-Subwoofer
-All usb, hdmi, jacks
-Fans
-Power button
-DvD / Blu-Ray Drive
-Ram
-Harddrive

What Doesn't Work:

-Keyboard ----however the led backlit keys continue to glow
-Trackpad, nor do the buttons
-Speakers
-Lights for some buttons on chassis don't work (buttons dont illuminate)
-Keyboard is physically damaged as well as not working,

That's what he's asking.

I dunno, 100 bucks? I wouldn't pay a whole lot for it.

Are you thinking of buying it, or suggesting a starting price?

From what little you've given, I'd give $50 in a heartbeat-- 1TB drive is worth more than $100, so I'd offer $50 and let him talk me up...

Of course, I have the equipment (and mad technology skillz) to repair the motherboard, so it might be worth more to me than to someone else. Not that I would mention that little fact.
