Hi guys,

I'm using Ideapad S410p, and recently my right side of monitor hinge already broken. But it is still usable to use, only the hinge is broken.

So I have made up my mind to sell off this laptop. Do you guys have a tips for me how to sell this laptop? How much can I sell?

I already upgraded from HDD to SSD and 8GB ram.

Really frustrated right now, can't traveling much with this broken laptop.

you should sell it without SSD and RAM (the RAM is 1 piece right?)

it won't fetch much, just minimize your lost.

Insist on postage and then waive any responsibility toward any damage caused by courier.

Instant profit!

You're kidding right? You expect to get RM900 ~ RM1000 for a laptop with a broken hinge?

Buy the monitor spare part from ebay or taobao or some local shop.
Fix it yourself xD
Shouldn't cost more than RM200
