    That actually is a good deal if it sold for 1k, I'd buy the quad monitor setup and video card for $700.

  3. It's not a mechanical trading system, but rather computer hardware!

    His total feedback may be +2, -1 out of 3 transactions = 66.7% positive, but his feedback as a SELLER is -1 out of 1 transaction = 0% positive so far. That doesn't exactly help, from a prospective buyer's perspective.

    For obvious reasons, it's a hell of a lot easier to earn positive feedback as a buyer than as a seller, on any given transaction and especially over time.

    Pay for it with American Express... if it's not delivered or substantially different from advertised, dispute the payment.

    BTW...

    4x Monitors @ $150* each = $600
    Stand @ $100
    Video Card @ $100
    Computer @ $200
    + backup power, keyboard, mouse...

    I think it's priced about right.

    * These are EXCELLENT monitors... about $1,300 each when new on the market... but what are used LCD's worth with no warranty?

    This entire system NEW would have been about $6,000. How big of a discount should a buyer of used equipment seek?

    I'd buy the system myself if I had a use for it....

    Sorry for not responding sooner...I sort of lost track of this thread after the first knuckle head chirped in with his immature comments. Its funny, you can almost always tell the winning traders from the losing traders, just by how much pent up anger they seem to be harboring.

    At any rate, I don't have anymore of the CPU's, but I still have 12 of the Samsung LCD's and several Ergotron stands, as well as one Appian Phoenix Radeon 9000 4 port video card.

    And of course for anyone worried about my pathetic ebay rating, you're more than welcome to see that the person who eventually did buy the original system was very pleased with the product they received.

    Oh, and one more thing.... If you're going to publicly "slam" me on the forums, please do not follow it up by contacting me via PM and inquiring about the equipment. If you think its garbage and you feel compelled to write about it on these forums, then more power to you.... but I am certainly not going to sell anything to you.
