Considering the age of the hardware I probably wouldn't expect to get more than $500 for it. You can try eBay but sometimes you're better off stripping the parts and selling those than you are selling the system as a whole. If you have the original boxes you might get more money that way.

$400 might allow it to sell a tad more quickly....but, it is about $500-$550 in parts value....

Yes like I said you might get a bit more for the individual parts than you would the full rig. That's usually been my experience.

So should I put it up on eBay for 550 buy now, 450 bid and if I get nothing part out?

Remember...ebay/paypal is going to take their cut.
Shipping cost will be a bear.
And then, you will have to deal with the guy who buys it, says it doesn't work, and sends you broken parts back.

So should I sell it on reddit hardware swap then?

And you still have to manage the shipping cost.
And the guy who demands a refund.

Ebay - collect only - then you can show them it is working.
I have sold several full working systems on Ebay and never had one come back.
