Used Acer Travelmate 2490

There are thousands of used laptop for sale of the market, but why do you have to buy a used laptop notebook.

Used laptop for sale are usually very cheap, and that is wh a lot of people rush for such laptop notebooks, but the truth is that, most of them regret after some months. It just turns out their laptop notebook had developed a fault which need a repair or a replacement of component but the dear seller cannot do that for free because there is no warranty for that service.

I once bought an Acer Travelmate 2490 laptop, so many years back. When i bought the acer laptop, it only worked perfectly for 2 weeks, and it started giving me a hard drive warning. Most of the time when i see such warning, i shut down and reboot after 10 mins, but this problem was there for about 3 weeks, until i decided to see a repairer.

I saw the repairer and i was told the hard drive has been damaged before, and other faults associated with the damage. I ended up paying a total of $520 for the repairs.
I am so sure that if i had bought a new with an addition of the $520, i would have been able to afford an outstanding laptop computer.

So whenever i hear used laptop for sale, i don't even listen twice, because i know that at the long run, the used laptop will go back for repairs.
So why do that?
