Im looking to buy/bid on a mac pro off ebay. How much do you think this machine is worth. This specs are pretty low, but they can be upgraded.

Mac Pro
Mac OS X (Version 10.4.11)
2 x 2 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon
1 GB 667 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM
250GB
DVD +/-RW
NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT
 
The CPUs are rather expensive to upgrade opposed to just buying one with better chips included. Your chip cap is also two dual core 3.0s, meaning still a quad-core machine.
 
I am able to upgrade it if I get the machine, Im curious if anyone has an opinion on how much its worth like it is now. Thanks
 
You can get a good indication of a used Mac's price on Mac2Sell.

EDIT: I looked up a Mac Pro with the specifications you listed, but Mac2Sell only 'knows' of a Mac Pro with a quad core Xeon. With that, and the other components on your list, it's worth about $980. With two dual core Xeons it'll be worth slightly less (as they're somewhat older than the quad core models), let's say somewhere around $950. Does that sound reasonable?

Good luck finding one for that price. They often go for $1,500.
