| 1159217 | 2010-12-06 02:46:00 | All the time...You can get come serious bargains off TM if you are careful. | wratterus (105) | ||
| 1159218 | 2010-12-06 02:53:00 | I've personally bought a laptop off of TM before, it ran for about a year before dying but I couldn't really expect longevity given the price. | Siobhan Keogh (16063) | ||
| 1159219 | 2010-12-06 02:54:00 | If its nearly dead, I'll rather build my own. Since, I dont do Trademe, or Ebay or any auction places. | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1159220 | 2010-12-06 03:19:00 | Plenty of steals to be had on TM for the right price, if you are a technician! | SolMiester (139) | ||
| 1159221 | 2010-12-06 03:22:00 | Depends what it is. A PC, I rather get new but the cheapest and slowest parts and build it myself. If it's a laptop but not a Netbook I might b/c they cost so much more than a few hundred dollars. |

| 1159222 | 2010-12-06 03:25:00 | I have quite a few machines from Tm, have not had a single dud, all are running very nice. | nedkelly (9059) | ||
| 1159223 | 2010-12-06 03:34:00 | Nothing to loose if you format or put a new HDD in (software/security wise) and if the hardware is solid I don't see why not. TM is quite good for for mid end upgrade packs. I do a lot of installs for mates of mine who have $1k and want to up their gaming specs, stuff like mobo + 6gb RAM and an i5 for $995. If I was building I'd do myself. nothing beats knowing exactly what went into your PC and the quality of the build, you also get lots reciepts and boxes/packaging <sarcasm> YAY!! </sarcasm> \\ People are getting lazy, they close the sarcasm tag but never open it |

| 1159224 | 2010-12-06 03:57:00 | Yep nothing to lose often have enough bits around to upgrade/repair if they don't work depending on the fault | gary67 (56) | ||
