Need the money because my brother and I are going in on an iPhone as a gift for our mother. We all got the "cool phones" growing up, now she's been wanting one for about 2 years now. Figured its the perfect occasion to get it. Since I just upgraded laptops I figure my part is $200 for the gift, so I'll sell this for only $200 flat out. Easily worth $400 I'd say.
Price DOES NOT include shipping.
I'll accept MoneyPak or BTC. Can provide real photos with my name on a piece of paper next to the computer as proof if you want. Here are 2 stock photos.

It runs like a champ while gaming, its amazing at graphical design and its truly awesome as a personal computer. The battery life lasts a LONG time too! It retailed for around $879 when I got it. I'd be asking about $350-400 for this laptop if it were any other day, but its Christmas Eve! I need money to be able to buy my mom an iPhone for Christmas. I just upgraded to a new laptop myself, so selling this one dirt cheap.
Its in perfect health internally, cosmetically, I'd say 8/10 - No cracks or dents whatsoever. Right now there is 1 missing letter key, so I simply took an un-used key and put it where the missing letter key was (Just personal pref. but I then put a piece of clear tape on it and wrote the letter on it with marker so its easy to read) You can change it around or take off the tape if you want as well. Its been like this for an entire year and I've never had an issue, but if it really bothers you, you can get a totally brand new full keyboard for $9.
Its got Windows 7 on it, I can put Windows 8 on it, or even dual boot them both for you.
