macmarauder Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 ok here's the deal, i've got an HP Pavilion 750n and i'm wanting to sell it but it is missing the front bezel and top cover. it'll cost $30 to get a whole new case off eBay for $30 or i've got a nice custom case with a window and neon light inside that i paid $30 for a while ago for another project that i'm no longer need. i'm trying to decide whith way is going to help it sell for more, looking stock or looking like a custom. here's a link the case that i have My Case so what do you guys think? i'm leaning towards getting a new case like the old 1 myself.

TheTerrorist_75 Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 I hate to say it, but to sell a HP the custom case may make the deal sweeter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
macmarauder Posted October 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 yeah it looks like i'm gona just put the HP guts into the bare case with neon lights and and add an extra fan. it's missing the large plastic bezel on the front that covers everything and i'm jsut trying to sell it for as much as i can to help pay for another PC i'm building. so sine i have this extra nice looking case sitting around that's what i'm thinking of using instead of buying a new case for the HP. i'm gona try selling it on craigs list for a week with out doing anything to first. but if that doesn't work then i'm gona need a screw driver.

TheTerrorist_75 Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 I tried selling my Jamis Earth Cruiser road bike on craigslist. I didn't get one hit at $200. I bought the bicycle brand new for $400 and only road it less than 10 miles. I figured one of the Syracuse University students would jump on it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
macmarauder Posted October 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 i've actually had some good luck with them, as far as people being interested at least. about 75% of what i've put on there at least gets some questions. most people are jsut kinda looky loos through.

TheTerrorist_75 Posted October 27, 2006 Report Share Posted October 27, 2006 Is that 750n a mid-size case or the mini? I took a look through the several old PCs that I have laying about and one is a HP Pavilion 6633C mini style. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
macmarauder Posted October 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 it's a mid size. i put it on craigs list and got 2 offers by the end of the day. 1 for $200 and 1 for $250. i emailed to accept the larger offer on friday but he still hasn't emailed back so i'm emailing the other guy now and telling him that he can have it for $225. if he says too high i'll just take his offer of $200 cause all i wanted was $150 for the way it was. which is great cause i spent around $320 to build my new computer so this helps pay for that.
