MrMez Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 Hi all Can anybody recommend the best place (if there is one!) to sell a couple of Promethean IWBs with projectors? One of my schools is panicking about the HSE warnings about retinal damage, and wants to replace it's Reception boards (only a few months old) with short throw versions so the users do not stand in the beam as much. Heh, it's not my idea! I considered eBay, but I don't think they would go for much. Perhaps I'm wrong though... Cheers James
MrMez Posted June 19, 2007 Author Posted June 19, 2007 I'm waiting for a response from the Head on that score. I will post back if/when i get one. I assume nobody has any brilliant ideas on ways to sell them for good money then... Mez
MrMez Posted June 19, 2007 Author Posted June 19, 2007 What are their sizes and are they +2 Boards ? As for size, I think they are 78s but need to check that. I did put in my original post though that the school want to replace them with short throw versions. As I understand it, the +2 boards are the short throw ones, or am I mistaken?
Grommit Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Yes it is.. http://www.prometheanworld.com/uk/server/show/nav.1684 So what do you have ? Board (size and quantity) Projector (type) and Remotes ? Amp? Speakers? Input? Splitter? Cage ? BECTA Box ? And How much do you want for the Kit and where are you in the country for pick up ?
MrMez Posted June 20, 2007 Author Posted June 20, 2007 A little impatient aren't we? I only visit that school once a week so I won't be able to get back to you with any more details for a few days. My original post was to try to find places to possibly sell the boards - I didn't expect anybody to necessarily want to buy them through here. I will post back when I can get some more details. Cheers James
ConTheITGuy Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Well - in response to your original question... I guess here would be a good place to start Perhaps try the TES forums also? Andy
bishopsgarthstockton Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 would probaby be intrested in buying one if the price is right
FN-GM Posted June 26, 2007 Posted June 26, 2007 i would be interested in buying one also, if the price is right
plexer Posted June 26, 2007 Posted June 26, 2007 James: Let us know the price mate we could well be interested. Don't think a 78" ProActiv board will fit in the back of my motor though. Ben
Disease Posted June 26, 2007 Posted June 26, 2007 I have 3 Promethian Boards sat in my store cupboard after I replaced them with Smart. They are Promethian Webster 72" boards, I need to oofer them to our feeder schools first but if they are stocked I will offer them here, £250 each sold as seen buyer collects, what do you think?
Grommit Posted June 26, 2007 Posted June 26, 2007 Well MrMez I would like to buy 3 if the price is right ..but you don't seem to be giving information out.. :-)_
MrMez Posted June 26, 2007 Author Posted June 26, 2007 So sorry chaps! Circumstances have meant that I haven't been back to the school yet, but I have just emailed the Head and asked her how much she wants for them. I will also get the exact specs on Monday (all being well!) but roughly there are 2 (maybe 3) sets of: Board (size and quantity): 78" Projector (type) and Remotes: Sanyo (with remote) Amp & Speakers: These are a new system that I have not seen in any other schools yet. They have a small white volume control and what appear to be active speakers so no separate amp. They may keep these though as they are replacing with 2+ boards - not sure if audio is integrated on these? Input: USB (if that's what you meant) Splitter: No - not needed as they are used with laptops Cage: No BECTA Box: No Where: Norfolk I will get back here as soon as I have more info. Cheers James
Norphy Posted June 26, 2007 Posted June 26, 2007 They are Promethian Webster 72" boards Hold on, aren't Webster boards Polyvision boards, not Promethean? Are you sure you've got the right brand there?
john Posted June 26, 2007 Posted June 26, 2007 They are Promethian Webster 72" boards Hold on, aren't Webster boards Polyvision boards, not Promethean? Are you sure you've got the right brand there?Yup Webster is a polyvision prodct
