hp pavilion dv6780se worth anything?

[MTRUSSO]

I was told by someone at best buy that my hp pavilion dv6780se laptop was rare and worth some money in its used condition because it is a special edition and is a copper top.
Does anyone know if this is true?

yes, that laptop is worth quite a bit of money. Not sure how much exactly.

If it is this one http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01296383&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en it is not worth much since the hardware is outdated and better performing new laptops are not that expensive!

It has nothing to do with the hardware, it's a rare laptop. They aren't hard to find because of their specs.

Rare??? I did not know such a thing as laptop collectors were pushing up prices of obsolete hardware!

I just have no idea if the guy was right or not. I am building my own desktop, and will not need my laptop anymore. It does have the bigger battery (not just the flat surface) which props it up a little bit even.
His exact words, "Is that a special edition copper top? you know that is worth a lot of money!"

Most computer buyers will buy based on specs primarily looks come second but you can always list it for sale and hope for the best.
