Olympics Asset Sale
 

Has anyone else stood in line like I have to get some of the Olympic stuff?

I got an Acer Travelmate 6592 laptop for $260, and a Panasonic 26" 720p LCD for $199.99

I went one 5th day of the sale.

Waited 1 hour

I thought it was a waste of time.
Unless you plan to get a TV/Laptop or maybe a couch, save your time.
It's not even that good of a deal IMO

Pure overpriced junk.

Duct tape for $5
Used snow shovels for $15
4L Window washer fluid for $4 or 5 bucks and a 1/4 filled one for $1.50
Extension cords that are hella overpriced
UFO Heat lamps for $150
Bunch of clothing, but mostly L, XL (not the ones you see at The Bay)
C Cell batteries for sale, some are wrapped in zip-lock bags
Umbrellas for $20-25 bucks. You can get better quality ones at IKEA for less than that!

But go there and find out for yourself if you want. Parking is on the side streets.

I went there on the Opening day, got there at 4:30am... and was 120th in line... Then still waited.. got in... yes most was garbage, the desktop computers and monitors were still available.. but no laptops or TV's left.

So yesterday I went again, and Got there at 2:30am... was 9th in line. Got my laptop and TV I missed out on day 1... and to be honest its not a bad deal. but yes everything was garbage.

$260 for 2.0ghz Dual core Centrino 2 gb-ram, 120hdd, Biometrics, Bluetooth, 15.4" Widescreen, dvd-rw, Webcam...

is it worth your time to lose sleep by saving $100 max?

i assume only if you can find a laptop.

It's not an auction though right? it's just set prices and you pick up the stuff you want?
or is there a process you have to go through?

Thanks.

wow you wasted your time and ruined your sleep for no deals at all

the laptop that you got has outdated specs and yea you'd pay that much for a similar one on craigslist
