Selling my desktop - how much can this setup fetch?

**JamYam** · 06-02-2005, 08:42 PM

Hi there,

I was considering selling my desktop and I was needing some opinions on how much it can get now a days, both being pessimistic and optimistic.

Here's the setup (it's an eMachines brand):

Athlon XP 3200+
512 MB RAM
DVD+/-RW
160GB HDD
Integrated video with shared RAM (doh!)
Windows XP Home
15" or 17" LCD monitor (I have two, I would be willing to sell either with it)
...and the other normal desktop accessories, including USB wireless 802.11b adapter

Do you guys think it can sell for $500-$600?

Thanks for any opinions!

I doubt it will fetch that much. If I had to guess...$300 - $400 used.
Good luck!

Doh! Hehe. Thanks. I suppose I was being a bit TOO optimistic.

Don't worry, eBay is full of suckers!

just get a friend to help out bidding on it to raise the price. if he wins, give eachother positive feedback, and throw it up again, but you will have to pay a little tax to ebay. worth a shot though
