A rough estimate looks like you spent roughly I'd say maybe $1400 on this. Depending on who you sell it to and what the LS pre-loaded on it is, I would say you're looking at possibly 900 to 1200 for it.

You'll probably get lowballed. Ways you can try to market it is, say its a lot better than a $1000 computer at like big box stores. (yeah like its that hard to beat bestbuy). If it comes with Windows 7 you could get some interest in it.

Thank you for the estimate, I wasn't sure on what was a base price for a lightly used but used custom pc in the market these days ran for. Yes roughly 1.4k about 5-6 months ago. It also haves windows 7 on it. Heh yeah someone offered me "$150" for it already, So i am ready to be low balled lol.

Appreciate your feedback.
 
First let me say, I like your LEGO SSD stand!

How much did you pay for everything new?
Especially if you want to sell the whole thing on Craigslist, this is a figure people will want to know.

My cursory guess would be $1,300-1,400.

I'm thinking for resale now, you're definitely looking at sub-$1k. Priced to sell maybe $800-900? Start on the high end though!

You probably would get more money overall if you parted it out, but you'd be looking at a lot more work because you have to manage all the sales and packaging and shipping and stuff.

It looks like a nice rig, and hopefully you can get a good price for it!
