Well first add up the price of the parts new and then times it by .66 to get a semi reasonable price. You are selling used parts with no warranty. you have zero chance of coming close to breaking even. if you built it the last 3 months you literally threw money away.

2nd this is not the classifieds. take it to eBay/ Craigslist. And they will even pay you more. people here know better.

Well, first of all, I find it hard to care about your opinion with the way it's worded. I can ask 10x the price of the items new if I wanted, if someone wants to offer a different price, they will. I can also, most likely, print all the receipts if the person wanted for warranty purpose, all items were bought new.

Second, who is to say they aren't posted there or I don't want to post it there. Who are you to say what other people think.

I am giving you an honest evaluation of the price of your used system. that is what you asked for. And it is what every experienced user on these forums know.

The receipts are irrelevant, the warranty is to the ORIGINAL PURCHASER. It is not transferable from you as a buyer of retail parts, to a purchaser of a system you built. If you want to warrantee it register as an LLC and provide a written guarantee to the buyer that YOU will warrantee it.

Your time to build it would be worth maybe $50. You are not a reputable system builder. You are selling a used system with no warrantee. Made of BASIC parts. and you are asking more than the parts cost. Its silly.

Yes you can ask 10x what its worth and yes you might find a sucker you can trick. But you HAVE devalued the parts and this is NOT a forum to promote your own business or sell things.

The only thing you should be asking here is what its worth. I told you what its worth. you don't make more money building basic builds and trying to sell them to a general audience. and wow are you asking to be sued when something goes wrong.

expect about ~50% . People here are educated and do their research. Just roughly offhand tallying it came to about ~1000 brand new for the parts,cheaper if the parts are on sale.

8320 cpu has been as low as 130 on amazon brand new
motherboard is about 130-140 new
ram is ~60 brand new
r9 280x is ~300 brand new
ssd is ~75 brand new
1tb hdd is 60 brand new
case is ~100 new
etc....somebody can find the new parts prices by a newegg/amazon search. So you're charging about 200 more for a used system than the stuff costs new, plus shipping. I doubt many would go for that.

People with any kind of money that are interested in computers and wouldn't want to build their own would likely just get a prebuilt cyperpower pc one,etc off newegg.

They are right. The time it takes to build and sell the computer is not added. The computer is not retail and the prices are lower than retail. I see that it could be around 1300 for you to build. Taking off at least 30 percent or 360 comes to at least 940 best case scenario. Then the fact that the items could be found for around 1000 with 30 taken off brings it to 700. Just be more courteous to people and you may get your price.
