Colin.B Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 Just wondering what a good price is to sell my computer for. Its in my sig. I'd just be selling the tower not the speakers or monitor. Also what would be a good price if I decide to sell it with an MSI GeForceFX5600 XT-TD 128 as opposed to the Radeon 9800 Pro? Thanks for your time guys.

BGM Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 well seeing as its so new.. i would go take a look at a reasonably priced online store, tot it all up, then maybe knock 20% off just a starting point.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.weir Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 I'd give u a grand Canadian for that tower easily, and you could probably get way more . . . the staples I work at only carries two AMD 64 models right now, and the 3000+ is $1375 for the tower alone, with onboard video and 512 memory, you could get alot for that CDN . . . but why the hell are you selling it?

RZombie Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 good question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin.B Posted March 17, 2004 Author Share Posted March 17, 2004 I bought it when I was huge into gaming and wanted something to run like the latest games and the ones after that, and the ones after that. I got it, I stopped feeling the urge to play games. Besides my parents have a 2600 with a geforcefx 5600 in it and 512 megs ram which is fine for me for now. I have alot of things to pay off and pay for. So really if there's already a pc here, might as well just use that one. I'e used this one like..a total of..four times :(. I lvoe it but financially it makes sense just to sell it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLegendOfMart Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 Youll be kicking yourself when that little athlon XP wont run more and more games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Veteran Posted March 17, 2004 Veteran Share Posted March 17, 2004 You could keep that one and sell your parents' computer, then they won't have to upgrade as soon (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Veteran Posted March 17, 2004 Veteran Share Posted March 17, 2004 So? :huh: You can use it too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin.B Posted March 17, 2004 Author Share Posted March 17, 2004 But...I wnt get as much cash. I mean, if I dont sell their 2600 it should play things for the next year shouldnt it? Plus wouldnt it be harder to get rid of a 2600 as opposed to a new one? Or maybe not becuase the new one is really geared towards gamers with a setup like that.

John Veteran Posted March 17, 2004 Veteran Share Posted March 17, 2004 It shouldn't be harder, it would just be less profitable. Just make sure you think out the long term effects of your decision before you make stupid choices with money (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin.B Posted March 17, 2004 Author Share Posted March 17, 2004 (edited) Ok, here is what I'd be selling: AMD 64 3000 MSI K8T800 NEO FIS2R ATi Radeon 9800 Pro 128 512x2 Kingston DDR 400 WD Caviar 80 gig HD Creative SBS560 5.1 Speakers Daytek 17 " Monitor Chen Ming full size black tower w/ 450 watt power supply Black Keytronic keyboard Black two button & scroll wheel mouse 950 American. Without the ATi but with the MSI GeForce FX 5600 128 XT it would be 835. Does that sound reasonable? Considering I've used the computer a total of 4-7 times. I also got the prices from Newegg.com...most of them anyways, all the major stuff. The mouse I didnt get a price for it'd just be free as would the keyboard. I knowcked 20 % off. I was thinking 15 sicne I hardly used it but yeah..what do you guys think? I've never done this before so yeah...I didnt put tax or stuff in cuz..its a private sale. Man I hate not knowing **** about selling stuff. Edit: I also wont sell the XP 2600 because...well..its a Daewoo..Id get nothing for it.
