Good idea! It is the full retail version and there are bound to be a few honest & ethical buyers out there who actually care about silly things like conditions of sale, licensing matters and other minor legal technicalities. As an aside, it is interesting to see the prices a full version of W95, W98 or W98SE can still command, but ME seems to be rather less favoured. Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 318529 | 2005-01-28 10:42:00 | Hi Team Due to a purchasing duplication it looks like I may end up with a redundant copy of the latest version of XP Pro (includes SP2), still in its shrink-wrapped MS box. It is the real deal, not an upgrade or OEM version. Any ideas on what the going rate might be if I decide to quit it? I was thinking of putting it in Trade & Exchange as I am not into Trade-Me. How long did it take for you to realize this? Why not return it to your supplier? If it is unopened they should take it back with possibly a restocking penalty charge. |

If it is unopened they should take it back with possibly a restocking penalty charge. *cough* I bought several copies at a favourable price through a friend in the trade, so I can't send it back. :( Loss on resale of one copy won't wipe out all of the savings though. :) Cheers Billy 8-{) |
