hello everyone im new here so here are some introductions
my name is harry and i recently bought a newton (i always wanted one
when they were still being made but could not afford it) recently i was
surfing the net and was amazed at someone selling 22 newtons and would
sell in mass for 40$ a newton. WOW i thought i could make a mint( i
mean i paid 200 for mine on ebay) after the excitement died down i
managed to read further a see that the newtons were missing things(ac
adapters, stylus,dongles) and werent in great cosmetic shape. BUT hey
they are still working so they're definately worth the forty dollars i
would spend a piece even to sell to other newton lovers as a back up
unit___so i thought.
so i bought them
and heres the BAD NEWS: i didnt(in my excitement) check first with
all of you here other wise i would have known that i was buying the
remaining lot of" Mikes newtons" yes the same one with all the posts
here about the bad screens.
GOOD NEWS: only a third of the units were affected by this screen
ailment issue.
SO IF YOU ARE NOW ASKING WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH ME OR THE
SUBJECT OF THIS POST
im trying to come as close to breaking even as i can and am offering
them @ 55$ a newton
THAT IS I PAID 880$ FOR 22 @40$ a pc
7 HAD THE AILMENT PROBLEM AND IM NOT I SAY AGAIN NOT SELLING
THESE UNITS
WHICH LEAVES 15 UNITS @ 55$ =825$ LEAVING ME WITH ONLY
A LOSS OF 55 DOLLARS(AND A WIFE WHO WONT KILL ME :)
SO IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED IN A BAREBONES UNIT IN COMPLETE WORKING ORDER
ALBEIT COSMETICLLY CHALLENGED
PLEASE EMAIL ME hhelwig_at_nyc.rr.com
PS i have all grades of "cosmeticly challenged" newtons and will sell
from best to worst as im contacted
thanks for the interest and the help
Harry Helwig
