Default FS: Pretty new, perfect condition Samsung R70

Hey guys up for sale is a 1.5 month old laptop from Samsung, the R70. Here are the detailed specs:

2.0 ghz T7300 Core 2 duo Santa Rosa platform 800 mhz FSB (This is the newly launched platform from May, don't get it confused with the slower 667 FSB core 2 duo's, the meroms)
2 gb of DDR 667 mhz ram (Upgraded from 1 gb)
15.4" WXGA glossy widescreen 1280x800 (no dead, hot pixels, absolutely gorgeous)
160 GB 5400 RPM hard drive
8600M GS 256 GDDR3 meg video card memory clocked at 700, not 400(This is an EXCELLENT video card, for all you technophiles, this is the first line of nvidia's video card that FULLY support directx 10 and include purevideo technology. Has NO problem playing MOST of the current games on HIGH graphical setting. You won't be disappointed!)
Intel wireless A/B/G
Gigabit LAN.
8x dvd dual layer burner
3 USB 2.0 ports
Included windows vista home premium. The official one that comes with Samsung is a Korean version but I have the english version installed.
HDMI port, so you can connect it to your hi-def TV or projector.
6 in 1 card reader.
A built in webcam so you can video chat with anyone else who has one.
6 cell li-ion battery (gets about 3 to 3.5 hours with general websurfing with wireless ON and brightness set to low)
1 year international Samsung warranty (which is really good)
Weighs less than 6 pounds (5.8 pounds)

For more specs, please visit here:

http://www.samsung.com/uk/products/m...Specifications

Please realize that the specs on the samsung site are general specs and you should refer to my post for detailed specs (for ex. the site says 1.8/2.0/2.2 ghz, look on mine and it will say 2.0)

3dmark06 overclocked score (for nerds like me):



This laptop has served me well for the past 1.5 months. I have taken extremely good care of this laptop as there are no noticeable blemishes, scratches or stains. I have cleaned it almost everyday and use a keyboard cover to prevent anything from going into my keyboard. So why am I selling? Well, recently I had decided that I wanted to try out the new Macbook pro. That's it. There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with this laptop and if something goes wrong anywhere in the world, you are covered by Samsung's no hassle international warranty. The warranty is good until June 6th, 2008. Also included is a custom, perfect fit samsung bag that I spent 40 dollars on. The original box can be included if you like.

Right now, I am located in South Korea for work related reasons, but I have a home and family in the states that can take care of all my transactions. My ebay username is MRXKUUL so please look with confidence. I'm not trying to scam or anything like that. I spent about the equivalence of $1900 on this laptop, including the ram upgrade and bag. I am looking to get about $1600for it. I know it's expensive to ship things outside the country, so I will pay all shipping + insurance costs. This is a great chance to own a Samsung laptop in America (as you know, Samsung has an agreement with Dell to not sell their laptops in the states) without dealing with all the import fees. I will also ship to any other country, except nigeria for obvious reasons. So preferably within Asia, North America, or Europe. I take paypal and postal money orders and upon receiving the payment, I will ship this out with UPS or Fedex, so you can track your shipment that's flying out from South Korea. I know many people are apprehensive about things flying in from overseas, but I know this is a reputable place to buy sell and trade so I hope people will trust me. I can also email the detailed review that I wrote for this site but never made it on the front page. Anyways, thanks for looking.
