Just bought myself an Asus TUF Z270. Once my son upgrades he is letting me have his i7 6700K.

To fund buying some decent RAM I recon I am gunna sell some bits, definatly my Asus P8Z77-V LX and so far about 60% sure I will let my Sabertooth Z77 go too.

I have been looking on ebay and seeing what they are fetching, sort of an amount i would expect to get.

Was thinking though and asking to get some thoughts on this. Is it better to sell as a bundle, board chip and RAM or sell them individually ?
 
a quick google tells me one of my lungs is worth over £200,000....

Lets take my age, 51 into account. Never smoked, don't drink a lot. Maybe get £50,000 max.

Could buy my RAM and then some... New car to boot..
 
Sell bundled, it might be a little less than individually but postage can be cheaper. Also you can guarantee compatibility. I worry when I sell something on eBay motherboard related as the buyer might have ****** parts and cause a fuss.

Cheers for that input. Think I may give the bundled route a try and see what happens.
 
Well they are up, on you know where as a bundle of board, cpu and ram.
Set it going at £80.
a week long auction. So I'll see how it goes.
If all does go well I will think about my Sabertooth Z77, I saw one go for a nice £120 for the board alone.
 
Just make sure you get a competent buyer. Hopefully no low feedbacks, although it doesn't protect you from that.

After reading the eBay problem threads on here, make sure you have a proof picture or video of the items working, note down the serial numbers (so that if they do decide to return it as not working, you can prove if they did a swap), and I always take a few photos when packing it up to keep as proof if they say it got damaged during delivery.

Unless you reject the highest bidder on an auction, how would you prevent someone with no feedback from buying? I think often you don't really have a choice on ebay.
 
I have indeed noted down the serial number of the board.
Will take pics of it all packaged up. I have saved a bunch of the air pocket packaging, will use that also.
That is if it sells.

:cool: indeed. Thread as it stands so far is fine, so long as we don't stray into a price check. This will disappear, as if it never existed!
