When I get my dualie, I am going to sell my mouse and keyboard (just like when I got my dual 450 black keyboard and mouse)

Would anyone buy it? How much to ask for both?

140.00?

thanks

Anyone can go and buy the new wireless ones for about that. I think you'll get much less. I always keep the mouse and keyboard around for when I sell my machine along with the original boxes. It improves the resale.

$140?

I'm sorry, are you on crack?

I can get them new, and in a box, with a receipt, for $49 each. That's less than $100.

Better yet, I can get the new wireless keyboard and mouse for $69 each - still less than $140.

You'd be lucky to get $30 each.

Isn't logic swell? It gives answers without really answering anything!

If you get $60-$70 for the pair you'd be doing good; however, they'll be worth more than that in the future if you sell your whole system WITH they original keyboard & mouse.

Keeping it for a later sale is the best suggestion.
