How much can one sell a Play Station 3 for ?

Question

My friend won one and he would rather have the money, what can he sell it for? ( You know a fair price, he wants to sell it himself). Thanks in advance :)

He's in the military and there was a contest on the base, so he filled out one the entry forms, stuffed in the box, and won it.

Answer 1

First of all, which version of the PS3 is it? There's the 20GB, 60GB, and 80GB PS3.

If its the 20GB he should be able to sell it for $350-400 dollars easily because the retail price is $449

If it's the 60GB PS3, he should be able to sell it for $400- 450 dollars because the retail price is $499

And if it's the 80GB PS3, he should be able to sell it for $475- $550 dollars because the retail price is $599.

Answer 2

Tell your friend to sell it on http://www.craigslist.org, and at the right hand side choose your state or city. If he was selling one of the rare 60GB, sell it for about $400. If he had a 20GB model, sell it for $300. If it was the 80GB, sell it for $480. I bought a PS3 from there for $375, try something higher because they will be desperate to buy it! I will guarantee that somebody would be calling him to purchase it within days or weeks! . Hope this helps!

Answer 3

Well, I think Sony dropped the price of the PS3 to $499, so if it is brand new, in the box, etc etc. He should be able to get that price. If it is used I really don't know, maybe $450.

Answer 4

Your friend can sell a play station 3 for whatever someone is prepared to pay for it. As it's never bean used I would suggest est you sell it for the same as a shop would brand new.

Answer 5

Well normally If you sell anything you will get back half the money which means your friend would get $300 back but if its new and untouched the he might get the full amount. But I gotta ask though, why would anyone in their right mind sell a PS3? And btw how did he win it?

Answer 6

Your friend should sell his PS3 for $499.
