It's incredible the deals you'd find. If MS Office is the Ultimate package that would maybe give you a 100+ or so to the rig only if the software is included. "Take a look at this page on Tiger direct to get an idea."
Given that the Mobo hardware and the ATI card is on the upscale though, and the case is not a cheap one, I think you could pull 6-700 possibly on Ebay. Maybe better if you include a monitor.

That's only my opinion though.
Good luck.; ▶ Reply to This

As soon as it leaves the lot, it's value decreases by almost 40%. If you get someone who really wants to barter, could you give any indication as to how many hours the power supply has run. How many hours the hard drive has worked. This is all considered wear and tear, and savvy buyers will ask these questions. If you cannot answer them, you can only hope to sell to people whom do not know better, and yes there are plenty of those out there too.

Be honest, you won't regret it.; ▶ Reply to This
