You'd give it away for free or swap it for something else. Worth €10-20

Alright, I'm curious as to what I should look for for the following pc...

Abit UL8 Motherboard http://www.abit-usa.com/products/mb/products.php?categories=1&model=290

Antec P160 Miditower, Silver, Side window + PSU and extra antec 120mm case fan
AMD Athlon 64 3700+ 2.2GHz Socket 939, 1MB
Corsair Value S. PC3200 DDR-DIMM 2048MB
XFX 6800GS 256mb AGP
1 x DVD-RW NEC ND-3500AG
1 x CD-RW NEC NR-7900A
Creative Soundblaster Audigy 4 with remote control
1 x 120gb Seagate SATA hd.

Thats basically it, would like to have some sort of an estimate as to what it could sell for.

TempestSabre · 01-11-2006 2:08pm

Try matching your spec on the Dell Outlet that will give you some idea of what a machine is worth.

hmmm... €600? I'd sell that thing FAST, a lot of that H/W is being reduced in price nearly daily. By todays standard it would probably be considered a good workhorse but by gaming standards its low end. Try selling it on adverts.ie.

Both worth about 230, give maybe an extra 50 for the P4 actually. Of course as always, what they're worth and what you can get are totally different.

500? I don't think so. A 2.66Ghz Celeron with 512mb ram is worth 300 at best. 500 would get you a much better machine new from dell.

Your pc, the Sempron 3000, isn't much better, the lcd would bring up the value but the machine itself would only be worth 250-280.

Hi,

If the PC is worth €300, then would it be fair to say the whole package, incl the LCD, printer, UPS is worth €650?

I got the ups for about €100 (incl VAT) through work. It is excellent, it has software and you can tell you how long you have left on its battery power, etc. It also shuts down the PC properly in a powercut, if you are not there to do it yourself.

Say, PC = €300
LCD = €200
Printer = €60
UPS = €70
Total €630?

You would be lucky to get 200 for that lcd, probably closer to 150. Your problem is going to be selling that lot in one go, no one is going to shell out 600+ for that, just to random.

If somebody has the stupidity to offer you 1000 euro for that PC, then that's their problem, it doesn't mean your machine is actually worth it.

Hard drives are no expensive these days by the way either, so they don't exactly validate that extortinate price. I'd feel like I'd just robbed a small child if I offloaded a Sempron 3000 for 1,000 notes, but each to their own ...

Also the fact thats its overclocked doesn't add to its value.

the fact that your buying over ebay i would'nt pay a large price.
for specs like that, maybe 200 quid or so.

only reason i say this, is because you could buy something so much better on ebay or the likes from someone who lives abroad ( like me in thailand ) for about the same price.
you could get so much better.

MT · 26-11-2006 1:03pm

...for specs like that, maybe 200 quid or so.

He wants £139 GBP for it which is about 205 Euros - so that would be a fair price as things go in UK/Ireland?

When you say so much better from the likes of Thailand what are the shipping costs like back to here?

not too bad to be honest.
but then for something cheap like 200 euro, off ebay from the uk would probably be better.

if you knew what parts exactly then that would be cheaper still.
obviously shipping a complete computer and monitor are gonna be somewhat a little costly. but not too much really.

small parts like a hard drive, or mother board, ram, graphics card, individual parts are going to be a lot cheaper to ship back to normal land.
