That config is worth about $1700 or so new, so I recommend starting pricing around $1300 to $1400 used, depending on warranty remaining and cosmetic condition. Remember that good pictures and communication will help get people interested to buy, and a photo showing proof of ownership (your username written on a peice of paper setting on the laptop, or the laptop displaying you logged in and maybe your user CP) is required for any for sale/trade posts here. Also keep in mind that you might have to take a compromise when selling something here too. For instance, I sold my HP 8510w for a posted price of $1575 + shipping, but actually took an offer for $1475 shipped. You can tell if prices are too high if nobody responds, or even worse if people start responding with lots of lowballs.

Recognize that the warranty from ISTNC is basically worthless. As noted in other threads, ISTNC is essentially unreachable at this point. In addition, the laptop I sent back to them for warranty work was returned to me unfixed (five months later). Infact I had an impartial second opinion done on it, and what ISTNC told me was wrong isn't even the problem. Just so you're aware, as you listed it in your specs.
