Selling my PC, wondering what I should ask for?

[Digital36]

Wondering what price I should ask for. I looked up the prices to see what I could get for a used one for each part, and simply just adding each together. It came around $500. You guys think that is fair reasonable/legit? Never had a part replaced due to defect or damage etc. Still runs good. I try to keep clean inside as well. Thanks.

One of the more recommended methods for pricing a used PC is to price it as all new parts, take 15% of for each year old (1 year - 15%, 2 years - 30%... etc) and add back $75 to $100 for the labor to build the PC. This should give you a good starting point.

$500 maybe tough but since you are including everything you might get a taker

Well, perhaps the most worthy parts are the case, PSU, Monitor, sound card, and keyboard . Those parts alone could get you $300 easily if you part it out.

The RAM will probably sell for a decent $40-60 also. The HDDS, depending on the condition maybe will sell for $40-50.

The other parts are just generic P4. Expect no more than $80 for the whole lot.

Your setup is really worth it if you part it out, you could try put if on Craigslist for $500 and maybe it will sell due to a snazzy case, but to any one that knows a little about computers, they'd barely pay $300 and even that's a hard sale.
