Not selling it here, of course.

 

 

i7-2600

Sapphire 7970

Seagate 1tb HDD

8gb Kingston 1600mhz

Phantom 630

OCZ 700w PSU

MSI g43 z77

 

 

 

How much do you think this should be priced? I have a (possible) buyer for $1,000. Is that asking too little, or should I be content with having a buyer in the first place, and go for it? (I've heard trying to sell a system nowadays is hard) Will I have a better chance of selling it for a higher price on other sites?

 

Free shipping

With returns, on ebay.

 

 

 

 

Also, what happens if I change my item description? Will the buyer be responsible to know if I change something? (For example, I change the 1tb HDD with a 500gb one, and the buyer didn't see the change)

Will they have the right to return for "misleading item description"?

I wouldn't pay that much for a used system even if it was less than the price of buying those parts new.

I get 60 frames at 1080p on a dual core APU. Ask me how.

1000$ is too much, you can get something brand new (4770k, 8Gb of rAM, 7970) for that price. I'd say around 800$, and even there, if I was a buyer I'd rather pay 200$ more to get something two gens newer, overclockable and with warranties.

I see. You guys are saying that $1000 is a good sell. I'm asking because, I'm losing money, but I guess it's hard to find a buyer willing to pay more?

There's no way they would pay more when they can get better for the same price. The only way you'll get more money for your system is if you find someone that doesn't really know what he's buying.

1000$ is too much, so if you can find someone that will buy it for that, go ahead, you're not loosing money because as I said, you can get an equivalent (even better), much newer build for the same price. ;)

If he's willing to pay $1000 for this, you got lucky my friend. I wouldn't pay more than $800 for this, since I can build a new system at that price.
