If anyone reading this knows their stuff when it comes to computers and pc worth and etc., could you give me your opinion of what you think this pc should sell for?

*Note* -  Only a year old. Used mainly for forums and video games. It cost me barely over $1k..including 1 year warranty.

*Link to product* (This isn't where I bought it, but it gives almost all same specs & all.) *Difference in specs between linked product and mine are under this*

And what would you say it would be if it's on a bootleg win7 disc? The disc works perfectly fine. It's pre activated and I've yet to notice even a small change between legit and bootleg windows.

$800  but if it's completely functional and you can't tell the difference then I'd just rock with $820

I'm not doubting you, but I just gotta ask. You really think after it being used at least a year, the value is only about $100 - $200 lower than store price?
Sorry, I'm just trying to make sure I'm understanding correctly.

In my personal experience, even if the item is years old; as long as it remains in good condition and it's function able, the value won't decrease as much as you'd think.

Oh, ok. Awesome. I've been very confused, since I use craigslist, LetGo, and my fiance uses another garage sale type thing on FB, and we're having so much trouble getting it sold for even $500.. It works beautifully, I've just fallen into a financial hole, and have to sell what I can to keep the house.
I can't even get this thing sold for $500.

Try eBay. They usually buy products there. It'd be okay to lie a bit in your description :p

I've never used eBay due to always hearing that people scam and get scammed a whole lot. Is eBay really trustworthy enough?

Do you know if there's a website I can go to that can do some kinda diagnostic test on my pc or something so it can give me an idea of the value?
If this even makes sense. lol

Let me be honest here, people get scammed due to their own stupidity on eBay. You obviously need to check into some things from a seller before buying their product. You first need to make sure their review rating is at least 95 or above ( preferably 100 ) and then you need to look at the specs of their product and compare them with that of the same product on another site. If the seller seems trustworthy and is selling the correct item that you're looking for then you're good to go. If you don't want to take the risk, then you can move on.

Nope, never heard of a site that does this, sorry.
