Never count new prices for used equipment. First off boxed processor implies a warranty, which is probably close to expiration on a used product. Second wear and tear on PC equipment such as the HD and what type of power source it was used on can shorten life.

I think a similar used setup on Ebay would give you a good idea of what to expect.

Nah, wasn't using it as a reference as "here's what it's worth" but rather "If you'd prefer something with at least a 1 or 3 year warranty"
