Want to sell my Xbox advice needed

    Ive finally changed sides - my GF bought me a PS3 for my birthday cause she new I wanted a Blu Ray player and I was banging on about how it was pound fr pound the cheapest blu ray out there - oh and not bad games console eitheir.

    Anyway - I just cant justify having this and a 360 so I wanted to sell the 360. Just dont know what the best way to do this is.

    I have premium 360 (about 2yrs old) 2 controllers(one play and re-charge) + HD-DVD drive, and HD-VGA cable, Guitar Hero 2&3 inc 2 Guitar's (on wireless 1 wired) the Steering wheel and pedals (the really good MS force feedback one) and a clatter of games, Gears Of War, Burnout Paradise, GTA4 + unopened 5000 points pack, Project Gotham 4, Pro Evo 2008, The Orange Box and one or two others that I cant think of, + about 6 or 7 unopened HD-DVD's


    The idea of selling off this stuff separatly is scary so I wouldnt mind losing a bit to sell the lot. Any opinions out there about what you might think I could get for this collection. ? ? ? or what the best way to sell it ?? :confused:

    It is an excellent package :) Why not throw an ad into the buyandsell (free) and ebay (not free). Also maybe a couple of adds locally in a shop or post office as you may have a better chance that way as ppl are able to collect.

    Not sure of the price, a new one is about e200? so with all the extras maybe advertise e350 and you can drop abit so you seem to have a bargain. Just a couple of suggestions

    If you were to sell on ebay you should consider splitting it up i.e. sell off the HD-DVD and games separately and the HD-player and then the xbox. You may end up getting a better price

    I might be interested in the HD-DVD player and the dvds.
    The player is selling for €10 at the moment in the shops.

    Ha Ha - Yea I heard that alright, - If you can find one:D,

    I wont embarass myself by saying how much I paid for it, god the cost of being a techno - geek early adopter, have to say though, Im one of the very few people I know who has actually enjoyed some fantastic movies in full 1080p HD for almost 2 years now. (The bourne movies, the Matrix Collection, Casino and loads more, HD is fantastic doesnt matter which format won). I suppose thats where you get your value for money - certainly not on the re-sale !

    Sat down and watch my first Blu Ray last night, awsome Never seen Die Hard look or sound so good.

    Anyway - I want to be carefull not to pi$$ of a moderator here and being told to shift my a$$ over to adverts.ie, I looking for advice about how much to sell for or best place to sell - so thanks for the interest but I wont be selling the HD drive separate from the rest of the stuff.
