Am I dreaming?

Chris Chan · 08-27-2007, 04:30 AM

I need to sell off all my old computer crap locally. Nothing here is for sale on CF, I'm just posting here to get a price check.

Guaranteed working:
$75 - Dell P1110 21" CRT (Nov01)
$20 - Compaq 1024 14" CRT (Feb94)
$40 - Blue aluminium Chieftec Dragon 601 w/window (Mar03)
$15 - 250W Lite-On ATX12V PSU (Late03)
$15 - Gray generic midtower (Mid04)
$15 - 150W Bestec SFX12V PSU (Mid01)
$20 - eMachines minitower case with CD burner (Mid01)
$30 - eMachines motherboard assembly inc... (Mid01)
Celeron 1GHz
HSF
Trigem Anaheim 3 motherboard
256MB PC100 (iirc)
$15 - 40GB Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 (Late03)
$8 - 20GB Seagate U40 (iirc) (Early01)
$8 - 20GB Seagate U60 (iirc) (Late00)
If you buy the SFX PSU, emachines case and board, and a HDD, then you can have free assembly, and for extra $10, I'll put Ubuntu on it and have it up and running.

Still guaranteed working:
$5 - IBM Model M Keyboard (Mar91)
$15 - Diamond Stealth S60 Radeon 7000 PCI (Early06)
25c per - assorted fan grills
$2 per - assorted fans
$2 - Stratitec multicard reader

Not tested:
$10 - PCMCIA dialup modem
$2 - Logitech TrackMan Marble

Not working:
$30 - 500MHz iMac w/o HDD (Late00)

If I can find it:
$20 - 400w Hipro PSU (Mid05)
$35 - 17" Gateway CRT (99??)
$5 - Yamaha 2.0 speakers

Am I dreaming as far as the prices?

Hmm, my local computer store still sells Dell P1110 21" CRTs from the same era for $100, and I've seen them for $120 at the monthly computer swap meet. It's a professional quality Trinitron monitor that I'm told sold for about $1000 new. Given that, is this more reasonable:

Dell P1110 - $50
Compaq 1024 - $8
Gateway EV700 - $12

I'm keeping the Compaq and Gateway monitors cheap since they're just consumer grade.

I'm just saying if you look around on local classifieds, you can pick up $5 and $10 CRT monitors all day long, so the only way you could sell it for that price would be to someone that doesn't shop around at all.
