I have one question, but I cannot give you enough informations for correct price, so I if you are able, please just say an estimate based on 2-3 informations that I have. The informations that I have now are:

-The computer is old around 20 years(and monitor),
-Last time I checked computer+monitor still worked
-10 years ago computer’s hard disk was upgraded for 3 GB

With those informations, can you tell me if computer is worth something, and how much is worth. I know I didn’t provide informations which you need for good estimate, but if is possible, please just say some number.

maybe if you remove all the gold from circuit boards, connectors and pins, the processor contains some gold too, maybe it would be worth something, otherwise, wait another 50-60 years till its antiquated.

Well, thanks for answers. I don’t need $5 dollars, or $50 now, so I will let this computer stay for now, and if before this computer does not finish in garbage, for 50 years maybe will be worth more, so maybe then I will sell it. Anyway, thanks again on answers.

I am not thinking seriously to store this computer on 50 years only because I will then get some money. For now, I have enough place to store this computer, so I will let him to stay for now, because It does not takes a space which I need.

I watched Pawn stars a few times, and I liked it, but unfortunately I don’t have time to watch it anymore.

oh yeah Ive watched pawnstars alright.

Customer walks into store

customer: hello i got a set of antique gold coins from the medieval ages with all the official certifications and papers that proves its authenticity , hoping to get about 5 to 6 grand for them.

pawnstar guy: ummmm yeeeaaahhh the market for antique medieval gold coins isn't that strong right now, and it will probably end up sitting 20 years on my shelves before someone buys it, il give you 500 bucks, deal?

customer: deal.

customer outside of the store: in the end i didn't get the deal i wanted for the coins, but its better than nothing.
