Hey guys, im thinking about selling my launch PS3, which is fully backwards compatible, but I dont really know how to price it. Now consider that the unit is in tip top shape, like it is, and I really havent played it at all, which I havent, how much would someone like the awesome consumer be likely to pay for full backwards compat.? That is PS1 and PS2 games.

Depending what comes with it. Probably between 300-400.

How much hard drive space do you have on it? On ebay, i've seen the 60gb units selling for around $250-$350, maybe a little bit less. If you're selling it here or on Craigslist, start at $400 ($325-50 for a 40gb) if you have everything original (like the box, instruction manual, controller, bundled games), but don't be that optimistic, and be prepared to drop the price if there are no takers.

Start high, then go low. If I were in the market for one of those, I'd be willing to pay $350, but I wouldn't see $400 as unreasonable.
Well, is it 40g or 60g?
GS sells 40g for 349, so I think 300-340 would be okay.
60g is 440, so somewhere between 375-425 would surely sell

I'm thinking about doing the same thing. Can I gt some feedback if this is reasonable?

I made a posting on craigslist asking $600 for the lot, I'm thinking $400 for the system and roughly $50 per game all of witch still run $60 retail. Then I just rounded t down to an even 600.

I sold a 60GB a few months ago for $400 on ebay. It was around 350 after shipping + fees. Just the console, all wires and a DS3.
