How much is my PS3 worth?

Looking for some help.

I have an original PS3 (one of the first ones made with the card readers in the front etc) that i'm thinking about selling due to it being used as nothing more than a very expensive dust collector at the moment. I have:

Console,
all cables,
HDMI cable,
2 wireless controllers,
2 charging cables,
Singstar with 2 mics,
F1
Warhawk
Ratchet & Clank
Heavenly Sword
Motorstorm
Got about 10-15 songs downloaded on Singstar and also Wipeout HD
All boxed with instructions and in absolute mint condition

What the maximum I can expect for all this lot?

If that's right then I'm better off keeping it, was going to sell it and buy a Blu Ray player and use the difference to buy my ticket to MGM and Disney in April.

£200 isn't a lot though

Re: How much is my PS3 worth?

no way ithink you are dreaming £270 is more like. remember the person buying the ps3 wont be able to have the dowloads if they want the ps3 wiped clean of your old user. £550 is way off sorry

Re: How much is my PS3 worth?

I'd stick with the 200-ish estimate. Only reason otherwise if the 60 gigs are indeed going for silly money on Ebay. Disk space isn't really an issue as you can upgrade easily and backward compatibility is resolved with an old PS2. If they're going for the region of £500 odd, I'll probably sell mine and get new one and put the rest towards a new telly.

How much is it worth?
Whatever someone wants to pay for it.

That's generally true with buying and selling consoles. You'll lose a lot selling it and then might regret it later. Then it'll cost you a lot more to get back to where you were.

Re: How much is my PS3 worth?

The real figure is between the two ridiculous extremes of pricing at about £370 to maybe £420 I would guess but if you ebay it remember to get your wording right and time the auction to end at a good time you should get past £400. If its scratched or doesn't have its original packing the price will drop a bit.

Re: How much is my PS3 worth?

I sold my 60GB on its own(boxed with everything that came with it) for £339.99 on play.com just 2 weeks ago. Try selling on there mate as this month there are no fees for your first 10 sales.
