Title: Selling Your Z? May I Suggest...
Post by: speculatrix on March 07, 2005, 08:02:14 am
I am occasionally frustrated when I see people selling a Z on ebay, in particular.

Might I suggest you sell the accessories separately, apart from say a case (which is good for protection in delivery). You'll get a better price, as firstly people with a Z already will compete to buy, and secondly, people always treat accessories as a kind of freebie/bonus.

There have been a number of times when I've seen Zs with LOADS of accessories go relatively cheap, such that I have nearly bought them anyway for the value of the accessories, and then I'd re-sell the Z on its own.

Damn, just gave away my secret strategy!

Hmm, I understand.  "value-added" incentive aggressive bundling de-valuating the Z and therefore accelerating the rate of depreciation.  (Is a possible theory)

How about a a fellow z-geek just wanting to share the love?  You know you want it.  here it is with working hardware that kicks mucho ass.

OR how about this for a thought.  Take this Z quick before my wife's attorney takes it from my dead cold hands.  This Z is a free range lil' linux machine.  Because splitting me from the Z and watching her destroy it would hurt more than kick in the balls.

PLEAASE take it, taaake it.(lol)
