    Exclamation 16g Playbook for 125$

    Hey, need some opinions from my fellow crackberrians.. I'm looking at a 16g playbook, on my local Kijiji buy and sell network. The guy has his listed for 125$, but says that it becomes unresponsive occasionally, he thinks it's because of his sweaty hands. He's the original owner, and has receipt. I told him to contact tech support to see if they can talk him through the issue. I'm still considering buying it, just because it's at a pretty good price.
    I currently own the 32g model and love it, want this one for the wife. Just unsure if it's a smart move.
    HELP! Lol

    It's hard to tell, if you want to be safe i would dig out that extra money to get a new one, sometimes it's worth it and sometimes not.
    But since it's listed for $125 it could be a steal, it's all up to you. I don't have issue's with my PlayBook becoming unresponsive though.
    gee gee baby~

    Is it still under warranty!?? If it's under warranty I would go for it. Worse comes to worse you get a rma from Rim. But as someone else says 75$ for piece of mind
    I waited...It launched...Im still waiting...

    I would say if its because of his 'sweaty hands' then .. might wanna look into a different one. This could potentially mean moisture damage to internal/external components. which = bad
