$1500 BIN. Seems a bit steep...not as outrageous as I would've thought, though.

That is the problem as I see it with Ebay, 90% ot the computer stuff is over priced, and you have to search for hours for a deal. In the real world, as soon as you start a computer it looses 50% of its value. You can usually get more by selling it in parts. | |

If you can't sell it to some idiot on Ebay for 5x it's value, you can always try 4x it's value next time...then 3 1/2, then 3, then 2 1/2, etc.
