8710p FS Worldwide: T7300/8700GT/4GB/160GB/Vista x64/Warranty - $1479 (notebook discounted by over $700!!!)
Sadly, my 8710p is going up for sale as I've moved to a new desktop system. The notebook itself is in pristine condition, and I have taken care of it well. It is only three months old, and most of the accessories are just over a year old.
My eBay ID is elipson2005, with a 25+ feedback. I don't really sell too much...most of it was laptop related stuff, and one item was a laptop sale that went smoothly.
Successful sales include purchases from these NBR members:
wuzertheloser
ToshibaDude

So without further ado, here are the notebook specifications:
2GB DDR2 667MHz RAM (1x2GB Configuration and quickly upgraded to 4GB)
160GB 5400RPM Fujitsu 2.5” HDD
DVD+/-RW Optical Drive
802.11a/b/g WiFi, Ethernet, Modem, and Bluetooth Connectivity
8-Cell 73Whr Battery
3 Year On-site Warranty
Dimensions: 15.5” x 10.8” x 1.3” (at front)
Weight: 7.7 lbs (Actual Measurement)
The very notebook was reviewed here at NBR. The article can be found here (I wrote the review ), and you can read it to get the exact details regarding how powerful this notebook really is: http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=4053
The notebook itself comes with quite a few accessories, as listed and pictures attached:
Several pictures taken today are attached to my post at the bottom. Other pictures of this notebook taken during the review...
And here is a picture of most of the ports on the docking station:
From left to right: S-Video Out, Composite Video Out, Microphone and Headphone Jacks, 2 PS/2 Ports, Parellel & Serial & VGA & DVI Ports, Power In (See the green light?), Phone Jack, Ethernet Jack, and 2 USB Ports. Also, 2 additional USB ports are on the side of the docking station.
Shipping
Buyers are asked to pay $39 in shipping to the continential 48 states, and $59 to Hawaii and Alaska. For international shipments, please contact me first to get a shipping quote. The notebook will ship with the original packaging and with the Vista Business Recovery DVDs. However, due to the high value of the laptop, I will be shipping this package insured regardless of destination. Taxes and fees are the responsibility of the buyer, and I cannot mark a package as less than its value to skirt around international taxes.
Some of the larger items may increase the cost of shipping. For a quote, please PM me.
Payment
I accept the following methods of payment: PayPal - can ship only to verified addresses in the US, UK, and Canada Personal Check - can ship only to address listed on check USPS Money Order or other Money Order - can ship anywhere Western Union - can ship anywhere
Please allow for up to 10 days for payments to clear.
Pricing
All-in-all, the retail value of this notebook and all accessories approaches $2700 in value before taxes (based on current 8710p pricing and the remaining warranty value). With taxes and shipping costs, you would be looking at quite a bit more.
Update, the extra accidental damage warranty is now CANCELED and will no longer be a part of this sale. This was done to further lower the price on the 8710p, as most of my feedback indicates the warranty upgrade was meaningless for them.
Prices are as listed for each item:
8710p: $1479
Dock: $99
HP 2nd Battery: $69
Waterfield Sleeve Case: $49
Monitor Stand: $35
Notebook Stand: $35
If the buyer of the notebook wants to purchase any additional items, a 10% discount will be applied to all the accessories (not 10% off the laptop).
Feel free to post here or PM me your questions, and I'll post my replies back to this thread. So happy laptop shopping, and thank you for considering my 8710p!

Just a friendly bump, and I need to state it again: at this time, I cannot ship internationally. The fees are just too high and the import taxes are generally ridiculous, not to mention cranky custom's departments who love to hold shipments for months at a time (ask ToshibaDude, whose shipment on cheap stuff was delayed by at least I month I think).
My international shipment policy might change, but not in the foreseeable future.

I think you should consider shipping internationally, or at least to Canada. I'm sure it would bring it more potential buyers. I've shipped 3 packages to Canada in the last 2 months, and only a one day delay occurred. I shipped a laptop, and a laptop case apparently they got separated and the laptop back got delayed. I would think it would have been the other way around, but I guess it just depends on who's checking it. From Las Vegas(Nevada) to Ontario, it took 9 days. I was using Fedex International Ground, and shipping with a business account. Good luck with the sale.
For Sale: Sony SZ650 - 13" razor thin backlight LED, 4GB, 160GB Hybrid HD with shock protection, Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2ghz, fingerprint reader, black carbon fiber casing.

I might extend the shipping to Canada, but I cannot change the price to counter any taxes or import fees. Additionally, said fees would have to be the buyer's responsibility and I would have to look into the transfer of the warranty. US transfers are no problem, but I never asked HP about an international transfer of warranty.
International purchases can be done right, do not get me wrong, but there is more hassle for both buyer and seller.
