I have a HP pavilion ze4900 and a nintendo gamecube. Of course, as time went on these two items became obsolete so now that school is nearing and a new laptop is needed so I decided to sell them. They are both in working condition and some parts are missing anf so how much do you guys think if I sell them.

I'm not sure about the computer, but gamecubes sell online for $30-$50.

Id say that laptop is worth about $60, it's 4 generations out of date, but provided it can connect to modern wifi and still works then it will have a home somewhere.

Yeah, I knew the GameCube wasn't worth much

For parts youd get even less, no one will want them and the selling price for each part would be tiny, I think if you want to raise money for a new laptop youll ghave to do it the old fassion way.

Hard to say - the best thing can you access any free ad boards to advertise it.

also what is the market like where you are?

Bundle them and sell it for maybe 75 give or take. Not much value there, but that's probably the best way to get them off your hands.

This. Post on your local Craigslist or at a yard/garage sale.

If you ask me, save the Gamecube if you like it. One regret I've had for years is selling old game consoles (specifically my N64 and all the games I had). I have since bought another one and started buying the games one by one.

You won't get too much for the Gamecube so it's almost just worth keeping. And if the laptop works and you can get Word, Excel, and Powerpoint to work, as well as internet, you don't "need" a new laptop right away in my mind. I'm not sure entirely what you meant by obsolete, but if the laptop is completely dead, you won't get near anything for it anyways.

Listen to Aves don't sell your GameCube.

Sell the laptop & cash in any gift cards, bank account, piggy bank, etc. Once you have $400 go to Amazon and get a good Lenovo laptop. Or buy a crappy $300 laptop at Wal-Mart.
