why do something sell so well at ebay?!@

Such as harddrive, motherboard, ram, and PCI vga card while everything else is next to impossible to sell even if you want to sell for nothing!
Listed 160gb hd for 64.95, sold in less then 2 days!#@ :+\
I'm not trying to make profitsl, just trying to recover some funds that I'd over spend on unnecessary items that are not so useful in the long run..

If you can't sell it on eBay, why not try the FS/FT forum? Maybe somebody there will want your old hardware.

Somethings are just valuable or are in short/excess supply.

ye FS/FT it

even if you sell it for "nothing" on ebay...how much is shipping?

Probably because no one can decipher your auction.

it's true though that some hardware routinely sells for more than it costs retail, even before shipping.. I find it somewhat mysterious myself.

Some people have never heard of Newegg, Mwave, ZipZoomFly and think CompUSA regular prices are normal instead of horribly inflated. So when they see a hard drive for $20 less than CompUSA they think it's a good deal.

Maybe because no one wants your crap? Its not going to sell if no one wants it (logic).

There's always someone on Ebay willing to buy! I've got rid of so much 'rubbish' that way!
