Descent spec, but £500-600 for a second hand pc is dreaming a bit.
But then again what do i know anyway, ebay is always good for checking up prices.

very hard to say unfortunately. Full sustems from the likes of Dell are becoming more and more popular and less expensive. With that you get your 2 years warranty and support of whatever and that's what draw most peeps in.
You're probably best off splitting it all and selling individually. A lot of hassle I know but thats's what I do. Check out the forums at overclockers.co.uk and KustomPCs.

nice one, id rather sell it fully then its a full pc for someone instead of splitting it etc, it has actually got 3yrs warranty with it but i'm not spose to sell it as i'm paying monthly for it through my work so theyd chop my nadgers off if they found out but also could do with the money and hardly use it anyway.

the second hand computer market doesn't really work like that though mate.
You'll find most people who purchase whole computers from places like Dell are either mums and dads wanting them for their kids or people who don't want the hassle of putting one together (or they don't know how).
Only way you're going to make the money you want is to split it.
You could try putting it up on ebay with a reserve price of say 400. See what happens.
Good luck mate.

Got it wrong, it was £279, I have the printout next to me, but I've just checked and it's £349 today  WTF
You could always have this one without the TFT
