A nice looking beastie - but way overpriced. Starting bid of US $2,500.00?

I'm sure you could build something similar for half that price.

Well i thought that it was a good starting price but i guess i am not getting the best deals are something. It has the latest graphics card witch was almost $400 + and the sound card is the latest card. It has 320 GB of hard drive space set up on raid and a gig of memory so it isn't slow. If you know of some lower priced parts help me out please. I have been using price watch to get the parts mostly but have shopped around a little. If i can get cheaper parts i can sell far a much better price but it cost me $2400 + to build as it is now. Anyway i thank you for your input and appreciate the help.

Didn't realise it was you selling it, I thought you were interested in buying it!

Its a very well specced machine, so I wouldn't know what to suggest in terms of price to ask for and so on.... after all my PC was the mutt's nuts when I bought it nearly a year ago.


Now it looks antiquated next to this one you are selling!

Keep it! You will never get what you put into it. (what it's actually worth).

Why do you want to sell it?

Wanted to get into the business but i think i might have chosen the wrong time for a machine of that magnitude.

Thanks staticon, DaveJ, and mulder for input and i hope this will work out. If not oh well at least i tried.
