You aren't selling modern parts, you are selling what are effectively antiques. No one has a list price for a 1904 Ford Model A, there simply aren't enough trading about for there to be a market price. You can take a look at Ebay to see what similar parts are going for but you will see people are selling Q9550s for anywhere between $50 and $330, but it doesn't really matter what people are selling them for, it only really matters what people are buying them for.

Really the price is determined by what the most the person who is buying it is willing to pay, just like a car sale, pick a high ball starting price and haggle your way down from there.

If you have parties interested why are you asking? You should be bartering with them not seeing what we suggest.


Well, I'd rather know the value of my stuff before selling it.

I don't see what the problem is with me asking a question like this. Do car salesman just start at a random price and go from there?

I haven't been buying and selling parts lately and would like a second opinion from people who may have a better idea, I know it will not be worth much.

I have several parties interested in the parts, so if they can sell or not is the problem. I just want to know what they are going for lately.

The HX1000, H50, and Antec 900 would probably still have some value. The CPU, motherboard, and GPU will have a very limited market so there really isn't a "current market value" for them, they are now old and rare, you might find someone looking to upgrade a C2D system but its unlikely. The RAM won't be worth much at all since its a high voltage DDR3 kit so it will nuke most modern CPUs.
