I got a notice in the mail a few days ago that my '89 300ZX is due for emissions testing by the end of next month. I need some quick money to buy parts for repairs, so I am selling most of my PC games and my DVD Player HTPC mod. I think all of the prices are reasonable, but if you have an offer, let me know. My ref's:
Email - [email protected]
AIM - EBWampa
eBay - du_alum
Heatware - Wampa
All of the thumbs can be clicked for much bigger and higher quality pictures, and I can always take specific pictures if requested.
The game CDs and cases are all in very good condition, and most have boxes with manuals (you can tell from the pictures). I have not registered any of these online, so the codes or whatever should be fine.
None of the prices include shipping, but I will ship the cheapest method (FedEx Ground, USPS Parcel Post, or UPS Ground) unless the buyer requests something specifically. The more games you buy, the more you save on shipping. If the buyer doesn't want the box, I can just send the CD and manual USPS Priority Mail (for faster and cheaper shipping).
Here is the information on the DVD Player Mod copy/pasted from an older FS thread:
I am selling the DVD Player Mod that I worked on this spring and can be seen in the article I wrote for ExtensionTech.net here. This is a fully working computer with lots of custom work and modifications done to integrate seamlessly into a home theater setup. Before I continue, here are a few pictures (click the thumbs for full-size):
EPIA mini-ITX Motherboard
256MB DDR 2100 RAM
13GB Seagate 5400RPM HD
200W mATX PSU
CrystalFontz 632 USB LCD
Laptop DVD Drive
Dual 4" Red Cold Cathodes
60mm Aluminum Fan
X10 Remote / Receiver Setup
Various smaller hardware
Now, for starters, the motherboard and RAM are not included in the sale because they were sponsored items. What will happen when I talk to a serious buyer is that we will arrange the purchase of a VIA mini-ITX motherboard and separate RAM, and I will install it in the DVD Player Mod before shipping out. The price is also subject to change depending on any upgrades the buyer wants. For example, if the buyer wants a 200GB hard drive with the player instead of the 13GB Seagate, the Seagate price will be taken off the tally, and the 200GB price will be added on. The same goes for the RAM (if the buyer wants more / faster). Any upgrades for the sold mod I will install for no charge. I strongly prefer to make any hardware changes / upgrades myself because of the open power supply inside could zap someone who doesn't know their way around the mod like I do, and I'd prefer not to be liable for that sort of thing.
The hard drive will have to be wiped before I ship the mod, but I will include a CD with the package that has all of the necessary program installers / plug-ins that I used to make the mod a working HTPC, including my configuration settings for Girder, and my LCD settings. I will install an operating system and set up myHTPC / Girder / CrystalFontz Crystal Control if the buyer wants me to, but I won't install any other programs (because I spent so much time finding the mix that currently works).
I am asking $315 for the mod, which does not include a new motherboard and RAM. The total price will depend on if the buyer wants the player in its semi-barebone state (no mobo or RAM) or where the buyer wants me to purchase the motherboard and RAM from, and also if the buyer wants a larger hard drive, etc. It might sound a little confusing, so if you have any questions, offers, or want clarification about something, please PM, IM, or email me.
Bumps are very much appreciated! If you look, do me a favor and give it a bump (because threads drop off quickly on these forums).
