$85 shipped for my G930. I think it's a good offer. I mean it's $79.99 on Amazon and Newegg... So I just want to get rid of it.

Guy lives in Northern VA so it won't be too much to ship it to him.

Seems reasonable.

someone can buy it new for 79.99 and he's offering you $85.... and you're not sure if you should do it? What am I missing here? Shipping can't be much more than a few dollars on a mouse. Why wouldn't they just buy new? Shipping would be free on amazon/prime?

Jeff sounds like a typical Jewish guy from Brooklyn.

A man goes to his butcher Feinberg and asks the price of lamb chops.
"$2.50 a pound," he tells him.
"But Cohen across the street sells them for $2.00 a pound," he protests.
"Nu, so go buy from Cohen," says the butcher.
"He's all out," he explains.
"Oh," says Feinberg, "when I'm out of lamb chops they're only $1.50 a pound."

I agree.

A: It's not a mouse
B: It is $159.99 brand new but has been on sale for a few weeks at the $79.99 price..
C: Not sure why they wouldn't buy brand new (didn't ask)
D: Didn't tell him it was on Amazon/Newegg for cheaper lol

What do you guys think? For my dad to mainly surf the webs, download and share pics, play a few online games.

 

[Michal006]

I would get this one. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883220739

It has i5 cpu and free Windows 10 when available. Unless you want your dad to use Win7 since a little bit more user friendly. They might have some discounts on 4th July weekend.

 

[bootyluvr]

I have Windows 7 Pro and I quality for the Windows 10 upgrade

 

[Flightmaster127]

I still haven't seen anything come across my computer advertising windows 10. I must be living in a cave or something.

Too much money....he doesn't want to spend more than $400ish.

Maybe a laptop? Just got this promo offer in email. It would bump the processor up to an i5 versus the desktop that has the i3?

Honestly for someone who is just going to surf the net and play what im assuming to be java or flash based games that should do it. Are you opposed to building though? You could probably build something to similar or a little better spec with a AMD based processor for the same price or less.

You have a legal copy of Windows 7?

Side Note:

RIP Octane Gaming Chair - It won't stay up right anymore. 10 years was a great run!

This is what it looked like brand new.

Like the shock is bad that lifts the chair up and down? Could you not replace that?
