fuel925 Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 I'm going to advertise my PC in the local paper and a few other sources. It has the following specs: 2.67ghz P4 Processor 512mb DDRAM 80gb Hard Drive 120gb Hard Drive Radeon 9800 Pro 128mb DDR Onboard sound Sony 52x/32x/52x CD Re-writer Pioneer DVD+-R/RW 16x IDE Dual Layer Floppy Drive 6 USB Ports (2 at front, 4 at back) 2 Firewire Ports Ethernet Port TV Card Trust 4000P 5.1 Home Theatre Sound System Lexmark X1150 All-In-One Printer, Scanner & Fax Machine Microsoft Multimedia Keyboard Microsoft Optical Mouse Trust Graphics Tablet Windows XP EDIT: Forgot to add, the case has one clear side, I have 2 L.E.D fans, and a few coloured IDE cables. The other side has a black applique (a skull with a gun). Basically the whole works, but I wont be including the monitor. How much should I realistically advertise this for?

kylejn Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 I'd say an even thousand, USD. I guess in pounds that'd be, what, around 600? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/314200-how-much-should-i-advertise-this-for/#findComment-585843597 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cero Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 I'd say an even thousand, USD. I guess in pounds that'd be, what, around 600? 585843597[/snapback] I'd say higher, considering printer/scanner/fax too?? Great specs btw. Well, how long have you had it? Couldn't be that long.

Japlabot Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Almost as good as a brand new PC, and the things that are now not the latest can be made up with the extras that you are including like the TV Card, Graphics Tablet, etc. and those Hard Drives (200GB Combined) so I say around ?650 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/314200-how-much-should-i-advertise-this-for/#findComment-585846363 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuel925 Posted April 29, 2005 Author Share Posted April 29, 2005 Well, it sounds like you all agree around the same price mark, im glad I asked here because its more than I would have advertised it for myself :) Cero - In answer to your question, ive had this rig for about 1-2 years, but a lot of the extras ive added since then, such as the writers and tv card. So guys, do you think I could advertise this in the paper for say, ?650? I could then knock it down ?50 to secure the sale if someone wanted to barter. EDIT: Bear in mind that im NOT including a monitor in the sale.

fuel925 Posted April 29, 2005 Author Share Posted April 29, 2005 Yep that seems about right.Why do you want to sell it anyway? 585846465[/snapback] I want an Apple Mac. I'm fed up of Windows crashing, getting errors when I try to use my peripherals etc. I don't want to format every 2 months like I have to with PC's! :) EDIT: To try to prevent a flame war before it even starts: im sure not everyone has these problems, or doesnt have them a lot, its just my personal experiences over the years, also it would be interesting to try a different platform :yes: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/314200-how-much-should-i-advertise-this-for/#findComment-585846485 Share on other sites More sharing options...
