Not sure of the price, but you are too new and no references, so that would turn alot of buyers off IMO.

Geez. So how do you make your first sale here? I have an eBay account (http://feedback.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=el-pepin&item=-1&frm=1883) with a few feedback. Would selling through eBay be better?

In the case of a local pickup, I don't see any problem though...

Thanks for you reply.

yea, your asking price is slightly high, especially because there is a post in the deals section selling x800 and x850 refurbs from ati.com for about $300 and comes with a 3 yr warranty.

In some cases, yes - eBay might work better. The people here (including myself :razz: :D) are notoriously cheap :D:D:D. But eBay can be a big hassle at times.

You'll also need to give it some time. Some people have spent weeks selling stuff. Also, there's lately been a flood of AGP cards since everyone's hopping onto the PCI-E bandwagon. So you've got competition...

Well.. the issue is supply and demand.. seems like a lot of people have been dumping their 850xt pe's lately and it's driven the price down. You'll probably be looking to sell a little lower than your posted price right now...

As for first time sales...lots of things you can do if shipping is needed:
1) Ship first - this takes a leap of faith on your part, but stick to teh reputable people (heatware/posts/etc) and trust your gut and you'll be fine
2) COD
3) Of course, you can always meet in person

Well, thanks guys for your advices. This sure gives food for thought...

I will see how this goes and maybe revise my things later on. For now, I will lower the price again. :|

I agree there is competition, but my price is not too bad compared to other sellers with the same item.

Thanks a bunch!
