$1 Laptop sold for $75

[New Direction]

Got this Pentium 3 Toughbook for $1 in perfect working condition. Sold it on Craigslist for $75. Wife says it counts towards my treasure finding fund for my new detector!

Wow how did you get it for a buck?

A Panasonic Toughbook for a buck and it wasn't stolen? Good job making some dough off it though.

A Buck! You got a lot of crackheads in your area?

I thought I got a good deal when I bought an old Compaq Presario for $10! Nice score!

I woulda given you $100 for it. That's awsome. They sell old laptops around here for hundreds of dollars. Dosn't make any sense to me.

I live on Cape Cod theres alot of rich people here and the garage sales are gold mines. The lady had it marked for $5 and I caught her while she was packing up for the day. She said "everythings a dollar" as I spotted the laptop and I said "even the toughbook?" and laughed. She said yes with a serious tone so I figured just hand her the money and leave without saying any more about it.

Theres no real ghettos here it was a real nice neighborhood. I just figured one of her kids left it when he went away to college or something like that.
