  • Advice on selling Media100i/le

    Posted by Jeffrey Gray miller on June 10, 2005 at 12:16 am

    A client has asked me to sell off her Media 100i/LE version 7.2. Thing is, it’s out of date, and I don’t really know if there’s a market for it–the cost of upgrading may actually be prohibitive. Here are the details:

    Media 100i/le Version 7.5
    PowerMac G4 450mhz
    512 mb ram
    20gb hd
    130gb hd (internal)
    Zip Drive
    DVD ROM
    RorkeData MaxArray RAID: 72gb

    2 JBL :LSR25P: Linear Spatial Reference Bi Amplified Monitor (sound)

    2 Panasonic CT 1384 Monitors (CRTs)

    I’m thinking of asking $3000 as a starting bid on eBay, but I don’t want to cheat my client. Is that too low? Too high? Or should I be marketing it somewhere else? I’ve been an editor for a long time, but haven’t had to sell anything this big (or complete) before, so any advice is appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Gray

    $3000 is pretty high for ebay. The going rate for the G4 is $500-$650 according to everymac.com and a Media100le usually gos for under $500 on ebay. You could probably get a couple of hundred for the drives, monitors and speakers. So realistically, you may get $1500 for the whole thing.

    This is an XS I just bought (because it was cheaper than repairing my downed board)- https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7517559025&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1
