Good Evening Head-Fi,
I am looking at selling my Xbox 360 on ebay along with all of the games, controllers and cables.
I have sold two things on eBay, both hockey cards, but I would like some advice on how to do things "right".
Obviously, I am going to lose money on this, but the new iPhones come out in a week or two (June 9th is my birthday!) and I am really looking at buying one. And since I cannot sell my Hockey Cards or Records (a big "hell no!") it looks like the Xbox needs to go.
I want to get around $300 for it, this is the core system, vga cables and component cables. Also included are an extra wireless controller and 5 games (all "new" releases).
So here are my questions:
A - Is $300 too much to expect?
B - Should I set a reserve?
C - Do I offer a buy it now?
D - Will investing in any of the eBay "gimmicks" (ie. bold text and the like) fetch me a higher price?
I really appreciate the guys who read this long post, and even more so the guys (maybe girls?) who will reply to it and help me out here! Also if you could share some of your positive and negative eBay experiences that would also be appreciated.
Thanks again Head-fi,
