Now I'm sure that most of you don't care that i won.. But it does concern the Tl.net community iF you continue reading. I won it at a School Raffle " BCIT" in BC , Canada
Since I already own a half decent laptop and owe a billion dollars in student loans i have decided to sell it. Online it goes for just over 2500$(www.sonystyle.com) since its really rare at only 300 of these machines made. My machine is labeled 33/300
Alright , if i haven't lost you yet this is where Tl.net gets involved.. If you remember i had a forum on tl.net a couple years back. I got robbed in Prauge and was staying with a friend in Amsterdam with no money or way to get back home. Well. liquid`meat hooked me up with 8hours of work and others , many others donated euros and dollars to help me get home. i didnt make it before Christmas but i did indeed get home shortly after. ALL thanks to Tl.net.
SO!! what im going to offer is 10% of my sale to TL.NET. which could be up to 250-300$
of course i would put Meat in charge of the cash , but ill leave it up to you guys for what you want to do with it. Tournaments , Tshirts, donation to charity , etc.. i really dont have a clue.. but this is my way of giving back to the community..
ill have the listing on ebay withen the week sometime . i have to set up a new paypal/ebay account. and will post a link to it as well.
i was also going to offer an additional 5% off to any TL.net member who purchases it. thats just an idea though
alright hopefully you made it all the way down to the bottom and are about to share your ideas on what to do with the 10%
|
sounds like a great idea, link to auction would be nice.
|
Nice way giving back to the community,
(hint you want it to jump up a couple 100 in price? get a progamer to sign it at blizzcon)
|
haha.. i have no intention of going to bizzcon.. dont have the time. a good incentive for a tl.net user to bid though.
|
Thats really cool man. Your story with TL.net is pretty legendary to begin with. This just makes it a littil better 
|
I love these awesome stories involving complete strangers helping each other out :D
|
perfect way to give back to the community.
300 dollar ironman tourney? 
|
<3<3<3
I love your story ( one of the best thread here ) and i think it is an awesome idea !
|
wow only 300 are made? that's really rare D: great way of giving back to TL for what TL has done for you haha

nice idea
i hope it goes for a lot of money

I definately remember you User11, your story was so cool even though it was so unbelievable at first considering you just coming and writing such a crazy post about your travels (if I remember you were also just a new member with a very low post count at that time as well). Good luck with selling your Z series and i'm sure the money given to meat will be greatly appreciated!

I think it might be even more rare/valuable than you think. On the website it says there's only 120 produced and they start at like $4400
|
Good luck a lot User11, hope you'll get out of debt soon.
|
Oh wow I didn't hear that story before, that's amazing.

That's really cool, I think one of the better uses would be saving it for Highlander II (because this one is going to be a smashing success, I can feel it), as a place to start the prize pool.
Anything is awesome though.

fanta!! hey! long time no hear.. haha how are you?
ill have to look it up again. on the box it says 33/300 might say 33/120 that would be wicked haha
yeah i was always just a watcher on these forums back in my sc days.. never posted .. well intill my ordeal.. good thing i did..
just looked its 33/300.. its not the Carbon fiber Z. its the kalediscope Z but with the Carbon Black colour
|
Props to you for doing this, I hope the money helps you with your loans
|
wow I wish I was around when this happened, cool story..
and look at the specs on that thing.. 8gb of ram in a 13 inch laptop O_o.. and a 512gb ssd o_O
|
