I would split this up myself.

I would sell the console with controllers,memory cards and some games(maybe 22) in 1 lot. the rest of the 100 games in another, and the racing wheel on its own.

it would be cheaper shipping wise to sell all together but I believe you would profit more doing it the other way.

good luck!

Give us some of your better titles, in fact, tell us all of your "good" games. Don't bother typing out 100 of them!

For the most part though, the amount is going to have to be found out by you researching what they go for here on eBay.

Don't bother looking up sports games, they aren't worth very much.

By the way, I personally think you should sell them in groups of 30-40 myself, only because of the shipping costs and box size. But that does matter on what types of games you have. The other person who responded to you didn't have a bad suggestion, though.

I'd hate to even give you a guesstimate on these.

there are too many factors involved.

for one I dont even know what games you have and this is an aucton site with hit or miss traffic during the summer..something as simple as a small mispelling in the title can change the outcome drastically.

something might sell for $50 one month and $100 the next.

you just need to compare what you have to similar lots selling on ebay now to give you a good idea.

a low start price will generally bring in more bids and more money vs. a more average start price but it doesnt always pay off.

Agreed!

Split out any of the games that are worth $7-8 or more and list them on their own.

The titles that are worth less, bundle with the console and accessories and they will compliment each other. Make sure to include the sports games as you won't be able to give those away in a BIN or Auction...

I have found that any game priced well, with free shipping usually flies off the shelves. Just remember to use the eBay shipping tool and they should each individually be able to go First Class Mail with Tracking for around $1.90 each.

After eBay, Paypal, & USPS Fees if you competively price them you should make out all right.

It will just take a little bit of work to get them all listed.

I was wondering if opening a basic store would be beneficial for me right now... I looked through some of your listings and you seem to sell quite a bit of games by themselves for low prices.

I want to move on and sell strictly games and small accessories, Im done with selling consoles... too much work...

anyways I was wondering if a store would be beneficial for me, I'm planning to start selling anywhere around 60 - 150 items a month, mostly low priced items, nothing too expensive... I don't know, I'm debating wether those $15.95 a month for a store would be a waste of money if I don't sell more than 50 listings a month?

Any help is appreciated.
