[daveg2000]

anyone looking to get rid of anything?

Throwing a Mame machine together... need some disk space.

Ebay bids seem a bit high right now....

I might be willing to part with a WD 40 gig hard drive 7200 RPM...how much are you willing to give for it?  Its fairly new...been used for around....a year...got it last year a week or two after christmas...

[daveg2000]

how much are you willing to give for it?

I hate answering questions like this... I either sound ridiculous
or I shoot myself in the foot...   

Well, I see that you can flat out buy some WD 40Gigs on ebay right now
for $35...

I dont know... $25 or $30?

Well I live in Canada so shipping may be a problem for you, but damn, check out ebay, you can get these babies for like $10 shipped!  I would hate to sell you something when you can get it much cheaper.

Is ebay different in canada?
$10 shipped?

I've been bidding on drives all day, and 40Gigs are going
for atleast $38 with the shipping... I havent seen anything less
yet.

Can I borrow your computer and internet connection for
a little while?

Thats ebay.ca searching all hard drives from 20-40gbs with Western Digital in their title.  As you can clearly see, you can probably get one for $10 shipped   Sorted by price.  Look at the first one for example:



WESTERN DIGITAL WD400EB 40GB HARD DRIVE
Pulled From Working Computer & Tested * Warranty!
 Current bid:    US $0.99

Glad to help

Just because the auction is currently at a few bux doesn't mean you can get one for $10.  if you look at the exact page you link too, drives that are ending soon are up in the 25-45 range.
