What price are people selling these at?

Is £100 a good price or did i make a crazy impulse purchase?

Just curious what people are selling them for.

It has BT and WiFi btw.

if you look on ebay, usualy brand new TH55 are sold 300$ USD, used is 250$ USD and for compare, a euro TH55 with broken screen was sold 60$USD. 100euro (about 125$ 150$ USD?) seem a good price for me!

100 Sterling Pounds are exactly 147,2 Euro and around 182 USD... quite a good price if the condition of the unit is good. A bargain I'd say.

£100 is pretty good, esp if it's a BlueTooth one!

When Sony announced they were going to stop selling them, I saw some going for £300 on eBay!!!!!
And let us not mention eXpansys and their clever but mean profiteering (What was it, £400+?)...

Nonono, explain to your wife that is is the equivalent of finding that wonderful roadster automobile in an old barn somewhere.
(A gleaming red Barchetta from a better managed time, perhaps.)

Not that the TH55 is old like that, but it IS a gem, and quite unique. :)

What impresses me is that your wife actually cares about what gear are you buying. My girl wouldn't make any difference with a T5 or wouldn't even mind what am I buying when it comes to gadgets...

I can't imagine myself explaining why would I choose the TH55 instead of the T5 - you're lucky man! ;)

The $215 I spent on my TH-55 was ok with my wife, but the $800+ I spent on my new Dell Inspiron 700m was a hard sell. I had to agree to sell my Inspiron 2100 and my Gateway Solo 3350, which I havent done yet. I did win a $300 prize at work, which helped. Anybody want to buy a laptop?? LOL!!!
