Is this a good estimate for my desktop? Want to sell it (Europe, €)

Tolrag

Hello, thank you for clicking and taking the time

 

I'm selling my desktop PC because I don't game on it much anymore. It was built in 2017. I want to sell it, I've done an estimate, but i'm not too sure about it. Please keep in mind that it is in €, I live in France, the market, tax system and currency are very different from in the US. Though, an estimate in dollar would still be interesting.

 

My rationale is the following: The total price is the price of the separate parts new added together, but without the delivery fees, and ready to use. Some parts have their price lowered, such as the case, because it has some scratches on the transparent plastic cover, and one of the USB-A port does not work. 

 

All parts are in excellent condition, the build works. There is no overclocking set up, the temps are excellent. I have the boxes and bills, too.

 

Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB             250€

Processor: Intel Core i5-6500 @3,20 GHz                       210€

Motherboard: MSI B250M PRO-VD (MS-7A74)               60€

RAM: 8GO DDR4 from G.Skill                                          40€

Storage: SSD 480Go Kingston                                         55€

Power supply: EVGA SUPERNOVA 550 GS                   90€

Dongle USB WiFi iAmotus                                               10€

Dongle USB Bluetooth 4.0 trust                                      10€

Fans:                                                                               10€ (for all the fans)

Case: SPIRIT OF GAMER X-FIGHTER SERIES 41 RED VICTORY  15€

 

Total price:                                                                          750€

 

I know my price is probably not correct, that's why I came here to ask. If you have any advice, if there is anything you'd change, I would love to hear it. 

 

Thank you very much for reading it!

Yes, I know, I just thought that because it's in perfect condition and because the person wouldn't have to build the PC or pay delivery fees, I could get away with a bit more

You could get away with 400-450 euros potentially depending on how current hardware is priced in France but any person who knows what he is buying probably won't pay but then again such a person won't buy a pre-built.

If you're lucky I'd say 500€ at most but yeah 50% seems about right like @DoctorNick said.

Thanks for your response. Yeah, so in France especially where I live (moderately rural area) there are a lot of people who just will never build PC themselves, that is the market i'm trying to target. But even so, given your responses, I should probably lower the price to at least 550 I guess

Good point. Try put it for sale and then you can lower price if necessary

Well thank you very much all. I'll start at a high price, just because there aren't a lot of offers near where I live, and because it doesn't cost me anything, and I'm not in a hurry. If it doesn't work (and it will probably not work) i'll lower the price until it reaches 450 minimum and wont go any lower.

 

Thanks!

Maybe you can try ebay.fr with a starting point of 350€ and see if people bid on it. If the final price doesn't suit you, you can just cancel the sell.

I had no idea you could cancel a sell on eBay because I never use the bidding system. That's a neat idea, thank you.

Way too expensive. You need to account the fact that the hardware is older. You also need to account for things such as the fact that Intel 8th gen CPUs have more cores, and are, therefore, a much more appealing option for people buying used, which makes the price of your CPU go further down. If you want a better estimate, you should probably search for similar builds on your local used market as well as eBay. That will give you a better estimate.
