    How much do you think I could sell a used 2 year old Compaq Presario V2000 for, on eBay with the following points:

    ~Dead fan- stays cool on a cooling pad
    ~Stuck left shift key.
    ~Screen release button needs adjusting
    ~Ever thing else perfect working order, screen perfect,40 gig hardrive perfect, and modem.

    I also stuck an extra 512mg ram inside, which equals now around 700mg. If the price is resonable I may leave it, or take it out which leaves it at 256mg.

    I have never sold a computer before, so I have no idea how much I could ask for it.

    So computer techs, how much you think I could sell it for?
    Thanks!

    A little more specs other than the RAM would be nice. I wouldn't expect more than $200 though.
