Feeler: PC

[Lopez.T.H.]

I will not sell my PC at this point in time but I would like to know what its worth.

eMachines 2893
Windows XP Home :(
2.66 GHz Intel Celeron D Processor
1.0 GB of PC2700 RAM
ATI Radeon 9250 128MB Graphics Card
CD/DVD ROM Combo

Once again I am not selling this PC, I just want to know what its worth.

~$275

[Lopez.T.H.]

I highly doubt I would even conciter selling it at $275... I put at least $250+ into it. Plus monitor and speakers.

Its used. Its value goes down plus, its a Celeron. Even if it is 64 bit, it is still a Celeron.

Celeron........... Who cares? Its in excellent condition upgraded the hell out of it. I play some really demanding games on it and it works fine.

Look, don't get all defensive that a bunch of strangers don't think your computer is worth as much as you do. I do however agree with them. It's an emachines Celeron with XP home. if you can find somebody to pay $900 for it, more power to you.

Just so that you know, this model (or one exactly like it) will be on sale this Friday for $99 at a few stores (CircuitCity or CompUSA, forget which)

If your serious (I couldnt tell if I sensed sarcasm) that would be a very good deal that might be worth my trouble of going out on black friday

What store is that? That could make a decent file and Proxy server.

Actually, that system is a Sempron, which is heads and shoulders above the Celeron. I have one now, I might go and pick that one up for my sister as a christmas present though, that's a great deal.

You'll have trouble finding anyone to pay above $200 for that system. Simply not worth it. Combine a terrible processor it with an extremely outdate graphics card and without even a DVD burner, and this system can be had new from Dell for probably $300-$400 new with monitor.

Welcome to the world of cheap PCs. You are on a board where people usually know what they can get for a couple hundred bucks, so don't feel bad or mad when people price out something. I have a ton of self built systems that I couldn't get much for :(, and they are all decent machines. With Dell and such releasing super cheap (both price and quality :) ) machines, it makes the resale value horrible. That is why Macs seem to hold there value so well, only a few sellers, and all at roughly the same price.

Thats not my computer. Its not AMD. And it came standard with 512 RAM. But that looks like a good deal.

Hm. Did you read the bottom line in my first post? I dont intend on selling this computer. I probably cant get a new one till late next year.

I did. Although most people don't post feeler threads if they are adamant about not selling...Besides insurance purposes, what's the point?

I posted it just to show that even new PC's have no resale value :D

Well, now i know. Let the thread die......
