    Trying to sell old laptop but not sure if it's even worth it, how much would be fair and so forth... it's a sony vaio model# vgn-n130g, here's a link to one for sale http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listi...condition=used.. is ebay the best place to sell or amazon or elsewhere? and the disc drive on mine does not work, and there is a 3/8" gash in center of screen from a metal tip dart... so I realize the $389 this one is listed for isn't what I should be asking but is somewhere around $275 relative?

    Any advice on where to sell, what to ask and so forth would be much appreciated

    With the laptop and other small portable device market being so competitive and prices seemingly becoming cheaper month by month, I personally would never look to buy a used one.

    Honestly, you don't get more than $40 dollars out of it. Completely obsolete hardware.

    I mean if you know that you will absolutely never use again or need the money, then look to move it. But I would at least set a minimum price in my mind that you would accept for it that would be greater than having it lie around as a backup or what not.

    Seriously doubt you'll get anywhere near $275. If it were my laptop, I'd dissect it, destroy the hard drive, and part it out. If you take it apart carefully, everything has value, including the screws.

    Completed listings on EBay for Vaio parts.

    And here's a listing for your computer that ended about a week ago and sold for $99.99
