I was going to try and sell it for..maybe $1,500. What are you thoughts on the price?

I can build a x58 setup with more ram for 1500usd. I like the psu, good brand,

If I were you I'd be asking 800usd. maybe a little more.

800 USD? I bought everything for a grand total of about $1,300. I bought all the parts of NewEgg and put it together.

I was thinking of setting the price at $1,500 due to the fact that people aren't the smartest, so they would pay it.

I might lower it then.

Only way you're going to sell it for 1500 is if you guarantee replacement on the parts, and offer customer support. That's the advantage that dell or any other company has over you. And it doesnt matter what you bought the parts for. What are they worth now? Not to mention they're not brand new.

New today it would be something like this
8800gt, (9800 gt price) =100$
Case =150$
PSU =100$
Ram =70$
CPU =100$
Mobo =140$
hdd's =70$ for both
OS =120$

Total =850
But it's not new

Wait so you payed $1300 but you want to sell it for $1500?

When a product is used, the value decreases dramatically. Also you can build that now for much cheaper.

I custom built my computer about 8 years ago. Cost me $1500. I would be lucky to get $300 for it now :)

anyways GL with your sale.

WTH?

There's a lot of people on my local craig's, that do that crud all the time. Preying on the noobs. But your lookin' for a very rare kind o'nood, man. Rich and doesn't know how to google. :stickout:

This economy's lowering prices across the board. For almost EVERYTHING.
Unless that thing's made out of gold, dude.

1500 us dollars

Hmm nice to see your so willing to scam the person whom buys it. Your parents would be so proud of you.
