    They aren't moving at anything near that price currently.

    119 with free shipping (which has to be 50-60.00)

    S102 Dell PowerEdge 6650 Rackmount Server Xeon x4 1 6GHz 8GB 5X72GB | eBay



    40.00 with 40.00 shipping

    Dell PowerEdge 6650 Rackmount Server Dual Xeon 1 5GHz 4GB RAM No HDDs VG Used | eBay

    That's it from Nov. - Current.

    Very slow market, and we don't know if his are going to be as good as the 119.00 one.

    Selling old complete units is hard; shipping usually kills the value. It's easier to move individual parts since they are so much lighter...just something to keep in mind.

    I think price is ok. Try to sell entire unit - more than scrap value. if not - each server has about 4-6 lb of high grade boards x 20 pcs. we are talking 80 - 120 lb of boards, plus power supplies. cables etc. Selling boards for $4 or more per lb plus scrap and misc we are talking $500+
    Only my 2 cents.
    Go Chicago Bears.
