Jim Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Greetings. I just bought a computer from work.Dell OptiPlex 380 Dual Core 2.93 Ghz - -- - - Genuine windows 7 Pro - - - - 3 GB RAM - - - - 320 GB HD - - - 17" screen - - keyboard & mouse. I have cleaned the dust and fluff out of it and given it a general check up. I have done a clean install of Windows but no other software. This is a good basic starter machine. Ideal for schoolwork or general office tasks. All of the money raised by this auction will go to Heroes On the Water. I paid £50.00 so that is going to be the reserve. So £51.00 could win it and all £51.00 would go to H O W. I will not post this so it will be collection only or I can bring to the next meeting. The auction will end at 8:00pm on Wednesday the 4th of December. I think I probably need to reserve the right to end this auction early just in case. I don't think I'm breaking any rules, but this is being held in good faith for a good cause. If I've missed anything or broken any rules, could a moderator correct it / delete it as necessary.

Rob Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 The only rule broken is no photos!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 I will throw in an additional 17" LCD dell monitor if it has dual outputs and the buyer wants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted November 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 I will throw in an additional 17" LCD dell monitor if it has dual outputs and the buyer wants. I can do pictures tonight. Thanks for the offer of a screen Rob. It's on-board graphics with a single connector but the buyer could add a cheap graphics card with two outputs and turn it into a much more powerful machine.

Jim Posted November 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 Someone in the club needs a computer now due to the current one being kaput. I'm ending the auction now as there have been no other bids. This is now sold ! Jim Kingfisher 126 and lofty 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve m Posted November 15, 2013 Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 So much for running a auction until December. I was interested in this and waiting to see a mate tonight to get thoughts on the computer as i had been having a few problems with mine.

Jim Posted November 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 So much for running a auction until December. I was interested in this and waiting to see a mate tonight to get thoughts on the computer as i had been having a few problems with mine. Sorry Steve. There didn't seem to be much interest and I was made an offer by someone who's PC had died. I didn't want to pass up a buyer with no other apparent interest. The good points: 1 ) It's gone to a club member. 2 ) There's £80 going to Help for Heroes. 3) I may be able to get my hands on something else ( maybe a different spec ) if you're interested. It's down to decisions at work from a far higher level than me. I'll do my best. If you fix yours or buy a new one please let me know so I don't buy something which you don't need. If there are more for sale, it will probably be first come - first served so I'll have to make an instant decision. Let me know if you're interested.

Kind regards Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
