Selling FFXI PC (from FANFEST)

[Myanth]

I'm looking to sell the Ballista Royale PC I won in Fanfest (~2006). I'd like to sell it to someone interested in FFXI if at all possible, so I came here first. The case is in great shape, and I still have the box it was shipped to me in. I'm not asking for anything outrageous, as the specs are a little out of date.

P4-D 2.8ghz
1gb DDR-2
AGP ATI X850 pro (PCI-E on the board is limited to 4x, so i swapped it out)
250gb HDD 7200rpm 8mb
DVD burner

It has a fresh format of windows xp pro on it, with a fully updated FFXI copy.

Please serious replies / PMs only, lets not turn this into a massive thread of bs.

Thanks

Kinda off topic, but didnt someone else that won a similar PC try to sell it on here for some crazy price before.

Did you win that one in Rochester NY? If so, it's been dropped on it's side. I'd buy that for a dollar. Maybe even $3.50.

WTF is up the craigs list BG style lately?

[Myanth]

actually i'm not asking for an outrageous price or anything of the sort. i have way too many PCs so im trying to get rid of one. I thought I'd give the die-hard FFXI fans a crack at it before I sell it elsewhere.

I sense a lot of regrets emitting from that pc.

If youre actually serious in wanting to sell this, then youll have to take about 10+ pics of it in it's CURRENT state.

No one is going to buy that PC for it's POS specs, people will buy it for the case if anything.

I wouldnt expect anything more than $350, if you were to just sell the case, maybe ~$80 (and thats being very generous) as it's nothing more then SE printing a picture they already had on a piece of metal.

^ this, I mean the only thing about the case that makes it "FFXI official" is the decal on the side, and the fact it came with FFXI pre-installed lol. Almost any business can create the exact same high-resolution decal and print it on that sidepanel for about 25$ bucks.

But anyways, gl to the OP.

I really don't see what the big deal is with him listing it here. This is the target audience for what he is selling, and if he just put it on Ebay he wouldn't get anywhere close to the amount of views he wanted for it.

[Kajii]

I'll give you $100

ppl are running out of death topic's so.... it's the new fad.

and if he just put it on Ebay he wouldn't get anywhere close to the amount of views he wanted for it.

I don't understand the logic in this. He will get more views posting it on BG (and other random forums maybe?) vs listing it on E-bay alongside all the "buy me XXX account w/ XXX gear"? FFXI fanatic's will gravitate more towards an online auction rather then random forums

[Tankjr]

Since this is already a massive thread of BS I'll ask this rhetorical question.

Why is it that only the undeserving win prizes?

You sir, were lucky enough to win that box and you should be buried in it.

[Correction]

WTF is up the craigs list BG style lately?

Because the only things left on-topic for General are Stuff I Read In The News Today, Political Arguments and Sports Arguments. And when those get turned into subforums all we'll have left is entirely random crap.

Don't like it? Don't post, remember the BRP Rule.

[Sol-Blackguy]

You're better off posting this in the gaming section. I doubt a lot of people in General Discussion play (or even) like FFXI anymore...

[aurik]

Post pics.

[aurik]

post *current* pics

[Sonomaa]

cleaned up the thread. If you want to buy this you do at your own risk
I wouldnt even consider it unless there are current pics. If this were a PC with those specs without the case, 300 maybe, 350-400 with case if its in pristine condition

I swear I saw this exact same threat like a year ago.

It was a different one, but we're not allowed to talk in this majestic thread, shhh

Compute softly, and carry a big decal.
