a(n)

OK case, with 350WATT PSU

AMD 2500+ processor with original HF and F

Shuttle AN35N-Ultra NForce2 Motherboard w/ 8X AGP, onboard LAN USB 2.0 (6 ports)... supports 3GB of PC 3200 RAM, 5 PCI slots

768MB of PC3200 RAM (what would be the difference w/ 256MB?)

HP DeskJet 560C printer, atleast 10Yrs old!

i think i got it all in there!

unless the monitor, 17Inch thing!

what's all that worth?

i would say 600-700 usd if its in good condition

If an operationg system with COA and monitor was included id say 700 is about right, maybe more depending who was buying. Kind of depends how much you depreciate since its apparently been used

This is how I broke it down . . .

XP 2500+ - $75
Shuttle AN35N-Ultra - $55
512MB PC3200 - $70
256MB PC3200 - $35
GF FX5200 - $65
SBLive! 5.1 - $20
WD 40GB/8MB - $45
Maxtor 120GB/2MB - $70
Samsung 52X24X52X CD-RW - $32
52X CD-ROM - $15
Logitech Z-640 - $50
Logitech MX500 - $25
MS Multmedia KB - $10
HP DJ560C - As old as it is, I'd throw it in for FREE!
ATX Case w/ 350W PSU - $30

Total - ~$600

ER sounds right to me. then again i agree that it depends on who you sell it to

like take me for example, i will give you $5 since that is all i have and i would probably take the $600 if i had it and build my own. but take some computer illiterate person and you could maybe get a thousand out of them (depending on how good of a salesman you are)

ps, take salesman to be non gender specific because i dont feel like being called a sexist pig....

eek! i would think the ram, cpu, and motherboard would be worth more value! it's only three weeks old, lol. i only have the 256Meg memory chip right now, but the 2500 cost me $94.99, the mobo for $62.99, the ram for $59.99, the vid card for $79.99 (month and a week old), CD burner for like $39.99 (month and a week)

what i'm trying to say, is all of the main stuff is Almost, in a sense, new...

maybe if i said Corsair 256MB PC3200 400Mhz clock memory with their little heatsink on it..................

My prices were mainly for Generic parts unless you specified a brand name. Yes, Corsair RAM would be worth more than Generic. Along with if it were under some sort of warranty. You could also squeeze more out by stating that it's barely used, but it's still "used".

[extreme_gamer]

but even though it is used You wouldnt be able to tell any difference from a New one...

It's kinda like driving a new car off the lot, even though it's "New", it's still "Used". I feel your pain, but that's just how it goes.

you could sell it as homebuilt and thouroghly tested
