wow cool thread.
Maul, i don't know why you're complaining, it is OK. my j728's cover is in a better shape that's for sure, but it does have a little little scratch on the blue part. also the paint came off of some of the corners a little
has always been like this... i got it in this way. oh and a little crack at one corner, but it hasn't extended any further. so, when i bought it it was in quite good condition. then the two halves of the screen plastic surround started to come apart
well, fixed that, but it isn't as nice as it used to be. soo... it's in quite fair condition now.. no bad scratches and the top of the cover is still as good as it has always been. screen has the usual very few and very little scratches. rating is 7.5/10 for it.
my 900c has some scuffs
(oh these 900's are really prone to them
), screen is nice though. sig3 has the metallic paint
(not the silver one
) coming off at some corners, but it is not noticeable as they're only on the side really. screen - well, a few little scratches, i can't really see them. 8/10 for both. intermec 6651, now that does have some worse scratches at one corner of the screen + a few scuffs at the speaker. but this on the screen is never noticeable when turned on. also i can always replace the lcd from the other, non working 6651... that one is in a much better condition. so, my 6651 is 7.5/10.
(yay, seller rated it as 8 or 9.. i forgot
check hpcbay
)
i have one mint hpc: sigmarion II
it was advertised as like new on ebay. and it is indeed like that!
bsquare phh was brand new when i got it. it got some scratches on its screen since then because i was lazy to put a protector on it
it has one now finally. other than that, mint...
wibook also brand new, never used, mint. except that some of the keys on the keyboard died recently
my zaurus
(ok not a hpc
) will be virtually brand new too and mint
(the one i have had here to try out was also mint!
)
i'll get it next week.
above ones are of course 10/10
worst condition is maybe the nec 770. the latch doesnt close easily, but it does close. until it gets closed, one of the hinges is dangerously loose .. when the unit is open or when it is fully closed, no problems. the screen is very bad with lots of deep scratches in patches
when turned on it is acceptable though. i did see the unit was like this before bidding on it.. friend got another for even less than me, 20$
(!
) and it works perfectly but one half of one hinge is missing
(!
) and screen is unacceptable
(for me. acceptable for him
) even when turned on.. that one
(NOT mine
) is 3 out of 10
my 770 is 5.
oh and my 789
(780 with a 790 rom
) has horrible scratches on both of the sides of the top cover. it looks like someone intentionally did it to poor thing
but unit is perfect when i open it up. 6.5 out of 10 but only because of the cover...
all my other hpc's and non hpc's
(except the second psion 3a
) are in good condition, screen, exterior, etc. i'd say all are 8-9.5 out of 10.
