Default Selling the Xbox !!!

Right I have decided to sell my unmodded Xbox and 21 games to fund my next console !!, now which would you see the better way to do this ??

1. sell all games seperate and the console itself

or

2. sell it all off as a large bundle

I feel I should sell it all off seperate as I think I will make more money this way

Hmmm,would be interested to hear what kinda money you get for it as I'm thinking about selling mine (Unmodded with around 10 games and 2x S-controllers & advanced scart cable)
Game (The shop) offered me £50 for my console a while ago on it's own...
I'd personally try and sell it as a package (At least with 5-10 games anyway) and then sell the rest seperately (Dunno about you but I reckon I've played mine 2 dozen times tops since I bought it)

Good luck anyway

Put a list of games up for sale here briefly and stick them on fleabay as well. I picked up a game on here the other day after stumbling across the list for sale.

You'll hit a bigger market on fleabay though

Edit : See Scooby-Doo's post....I rest my case

FYI I got £70 plus £12 postage for my Xbox with no games and 2 controllers on ebay thought that was alright considering that you can get a new console with 2 games from GAME for £110.

HTH

Was looking for an xbox to chip as I didn't want to risk ruining mine.

Ended up getting one on Ebay with 2 controllers and 9 games for £75 (some of which will soon be for sale).

I would've sold everything separately myself.

Saw some xbox's go for £90 with 0/1/2 games.

I'm selling mine off as a bundle on ebay atm. I wouldn't want the hassle of putting each game up separately (listing fee on each!) and then having to package them one by one, some of them might not sell. So I'd recommend selling as a package. As some said before you should get 100+ for it.
