Are these the WD1600JBs from Best Buy last year?

I just checked Tiger ( I buy all my PC stuff there, no real reason why I just like them)
I am not a WD fan.  I offer $65.00 + actual ship. for 1

Thats too low for me...but I do have a MAXTOR 160gb HD (used a few times) for sale.

Maxtor is my fave.
$65 for it?
I am not trying to be cheep on you, but if I can get a new one for $90.00 with warranty I fell subtracting $25.00 for no warranty is fare. ( don't blame you for trying for more. thats cool. )

Maxtor = more dependable I think ( thats just me though, others like WD )

Considering 80 gb western digitals are $30 this week.. (CompUSA, CircuitCity)
and 120 gb western digital as $50 at Best Buy this week,
and 200 gb Seagates (with 5 year warranty) are $70 at Outpost.com this week...

...  The offers you've received are more than fair (and perhaps a bit high actually)


I'd recommend going with a Seagate if you need that much storage space.. Or wait 2 weeks and the 160 will probably be $50 after rebate again at Outpost.com  Shipping there is usally $7.95

The seagates run cooler and quieter than any recent Maxtor or WD that I've owned. Put one in a ReplayTV unit (fanless) and another 2 in a Dell 8300 and it's SOO much quieter than my dual WD setup I previously had.

I just assumed used ... no warranty. ;)
I have no idea when you bought them. some one posted if that was last year.?
I know how long the warranty is from factory but you will need the receipt of purchase.

You offered with no price listed.
I offer what I thought was a fare price.
never mind. I need one so I went and bought one

Just for the record, outpost.com has 160GB Hitachi's for 50USD and the WD1600JD SATA drive for 70USD.

If the WDs were from the sale last year (same model no.), I'd be perfectly happy with 100% profit ;)

Too bad I don't need any drives though... Got more than .5TB sitting in my main. hehe

you guys don't want those new BIG HD's. You can practically buy/find those anywhere. I have a 10MB MFM HD FS. Now this is RARE, you can't find this anywhere and I'm willing to give it you $25.00, now thats a deal for a classic/antiques piece of computer history
