Howdy ya'll! Since we have so many promising artists i was wondering if anyone has a cheap tablet for sale. My gf is in photography and photoshop is really good to work with a tablet. Or so she says... I couldnt draw stickmen if my life depended on it, so i will take her word for it.
If anything let me know. Thanks. ^^

Well, following Lanzo's great advice, i bought my fiancee a brand new Wacom pen&touch. She loves it!
Here are her first doodles.
Not bad for someone who had a couple of hours with her first tablet eh?

Wow... I haven't been on these forums forever and I am surprised no one has answered this yet.
I don't have one to sell (actually I am looking to buy a new one soon). I do have some suggestions though. There is a brand of graphic tablets known for making quality products and is probably the most popular brand, they are called Wacom. Some might think graphic tablets are expensive but Wacom gives tons of different options that you are able to get cheaper ones or expensive ones. There is a cheaper one that is pretty new and I hear is really nice, it is called the Bamboo... here is a link to the Bamboo on the EU site (I use the US site but I am pretty sure your European, right? - heh). It is only $99 in America which is pretty cheap.
Their most expensive is the one I really want and doubt I will get because of its price... it is called the Cintiq 21UX (2nd Generation)... it cost $2000 in America. I know you were looking for a cheap one but this thing is awesome so here is a link (to the EU site again) if you want to look at it and be jealous of those who can get it (I am really jealous - lol).
The most popular of all their tablets is the Intuos though, which they are on the 4th generation so it is called the Intuos4 and it is pretty awesome too (all three are awesome in their own way)... it will probably be the one I will get. It comes in Small, Medium, Large, Extra Large and Wireless (which has an active area (the area where you draw) that is smaller then the mediums)... I am might get either the medium or large. You can check it out here.
It seems they sell their older generation products that were used for a short period of time in their demos right in their European eStore... so you can get a better price if you don't mind it being used or older generation so not as good. I probably will get a new one because I hate used (had a bad experience once and that was it) and I want the doubled pressure sensitivity from the new generation but if you don't mind go for it.
Anyways... this is a bit long but I hope it helps.
