My friend's laptop was recently broken because the monitor won't turn on so she gave it to me. I have no idea why really, but I'm not complaining. I don't need/want it so I am seeling it for broken parts/repair. She bought it for around $1,500 As I have never sold anything on the internet before, how should I price it? It is only about a year or two old. No real visible damage besides a few small scratches on the outside. Also, where should I be selling it? There is no problem with hardware as it works fine with an outside monitor. So the Monitor is the only thing broken.

It is a HP Pavillion 9700. Not sure on exact specs but here are some pics (fugly floor. I know):

Wow, typo in the title. xD

I will take it for free. Probably not much though because the screen is broke and i think that it wouldn't be cheap to get it fixed.

ebay ftw

Still has value. Can hook up an external screen when needing to  configure it and use it a Ventrilo server / torrent box / hook it to USB drives for a NAS etc... Old laptops make great home servers since they don't use much power (especially without the power hungry screen).

But at the same time I can build an extremely 250 buck computer with the bare minimums (don't even need a case, you can stick it in a well ventilated cardboard box, seriously) for extremely cheap that does the same thing.

So perhaps a price of mabye around 50 bucks. (I reccomend it to people who already have ancient laptops, as opposed to going and buying one. For buying it's better to build one as vlad says).

$1700?
Is there a warranty card in there?
