I have a pretty nice computer that I bought on Jun 25th of last year. Its
an XPS 400 Pentium D 3Ghz machine with 2 gigs of DDR-2 ram , a 180 GIG SATA
3 HD , an NVIDIA 7900 GTX 512 , a Sound Blaster Audigy card and the
operating system is WIN XP MEDIA CENTER ( I have the cd's too ). Do you
think ebay would be the best place to try and sell it? I wish DELL had some
kind of trade in program as I want to buy the newest tech I can afford and
I know this pc is in great A1 condition and don't want to just leave it
here lying around. I was thinking 600 bucks for the whole thing plus
shipping. I tried one of those websites where you put in all the info of
what you want to sell and they tell you what they will pay and its totally
a ridiculous price that they come up with.

rule of thumb,,,,

Divide the price you paid, by 2.

work out 25% of that figure.

that's what you can expect to get for it...............if you are lucky.

nearly a year old in the comp business makes it ancient.

I disagree with that. P3s still fetch 50-100 dollars. A nice system
like that, I think you could get your price, to the right buyer. Maybe
a little less.
