    For all the hardware under My Computer, excluding speakers, a monitor, and the OS what should I be asking for the beast.
    I'm thinking about $700, I've got to be realistic here, nobody how knows anything about computers would want to pay more for a headless, OS deprived rig. Anyone think differently?

    Oh man, this is looking grim...well thanks for the honesty. Though it's cheaper than prebuilts would be, I think my friends has XP 64 beta, I'll see if that works okay...

    Really? That's pretty sweet, it would be cool if I could sell it in Britain somehow.

    Yeah £650 is about what you'd get for that system, but remember in the UK things cost more so you'd make more money. Over in the US things are cheaper (at the current exchange rate to GB£, the actual value of money to you may be different)

    Too bad there's no Ebay UK or something. Alas I'll probably just have to get someone to buy it for cheap around here:(

    Yep, as long as you mention you can ship to the rest of the world and the buyer is willing to pay for the shipping :)

    Yeah I'd check out delivery first, as a big heavy thing like a computer could cost an arm and a leg to ship...
    Or you could always specify that the buyer pays all shipping when the auction has closed, although that does seem a bit unfair as they could end up paying a lot more than they first though.
