Well, 1st time selling something, testing waters, seeing if anyone is interested in my trash Some old rare'ish CPUs for for collectors with some odd museum/art setup. i has this photo, sorry, forgot to put my glasses on: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FWPpqDGg.jpg%3F1&t=665&c=4vsJx4f4J5PRNg) forgot to throw my sig on a paper near it and a banana in my ear.. the pent pro seems to be going to $50-100au (depending on the cache and speed, etc) so about 0.3btc the Cyrix made IBM 6x86L PR200+ not so much, strangely no one likes this oddity about $10-20, so about 0.06 but oddly, the K5 is going for about $40au, so 0.13btc? so about 0.5btc? (that is negotiable price, i want someone to take care of them over me crushing them) postage tba at sale if no interest, its going in my gold scrapping pile, my ball mill like these ceramic type... now for the people asking, the 6x86 and the k5 i had them working pulled, the pent pro, i have a dead mobo that fits it, so no idea, but i never abused it, so it may work, hence for collectors of some odd museum/art setup.

Are these listed on ebay? For collectibles ebay is the way to go. And you also have an ebay thread here in the forum.

just to let you know, im basing the pricing off this: http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/CPUs-Processors-/164/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=pentium+pro25usd? that's 0.11btc, not 25EUR? that's 0.1275btc? hell, 25AUD is 0.09 now let me get this right, 25eur, I'm assuming you're from around Spain? That would be Express Post International with signature on delivery and tracking be about $83aud that's 0.28btc, to deliver it to Spain. ..and you said 25 with postage? you're saying 25 is including postage? not 25 and add postage? (sorry, the term "with" when it comes to money doesn't sit well with me, its a "and add" term that people say i have added postage with the figure)

Right, that's the problem. Those are people's asking prices, that isn't what it is worth (what people are actually paying for them). I can list one on ebay for a million dollars, that doesn't mean it is worth a million dollars. If you look at sold listings, these things are actually going for 20ish, and that is WITH ebay buyer protection which you obviously can't offer. The ones selling for more then that are collector grade, mint condition, sealed in the box brand new, etc. You don't even guarantee yours works, which limits it's value to the gold inside, minus the cost to recover it; you need to be selling them for less then ebay, not more. It obviously doesn't make much sense for anyone to give you 100 for 25 worth of gold that they then have to spend money to extract.

that's fine by me, i'm willing to let it go for the price of scrap, only if people a willing for the postage cost, if not, like i said, i'll scrap it myself no biggy its not the rare 1MB cache version. the process does take a few weeks though (letting the acid eat the metals that the gold is sputtered on, leaving the skin-like gold behind. acid peroxide ftw!)

Postage should not be more than 10$, at least sending it as a certified letter.
