...worth it?

[WicKeD_WaYz]

I dont know what forum to put this is people would prolly get mad if I put it in classifieds so here goes....


I just got like 7 graphing calculators from a family friend who just retired as a math teacher. I know nothing about math and even less about graphing calculators, but I hear they can be bought new for like 100$$ a pop. So I figure I could resell them for like 50? Is that a good price? Would anyone buy them if i listed through ebay. Basically what im saying is...is it worth the hassle? CMON MATH PEOPLE HELP ME OUT.

BTW the name of them is TI-82 or Texas Instruments 82.


ADVICE!:eek:

[AcemanPB]

what kind are they? Ti-83?

[TransMan]

He said they were TI-82 and no there not worth 50$ they cost 100$ about 5 years ago they have a lot better calculators now liek the new shiny clear one you prob wont get a lot out of em maybe 15-20$ because most math classes now use TI-83 and higher so good look selling them hope i helped ya

TI-83s go for like, 20 bucks a piece at my school.

lol yeah the 82s aren't worth much of anything anymore... good luck though, people seem to be able to sell ANYTHING on ebay!!

mmm ti-89 calc goodness

[Lopy-slopy]

How do you get them for 20? In canada there 120. If you posted them someone would probably buy them. You can trick somepeople into thinking it's still a good calculator. like 40 might be a good price?

I'll give ya $50 for all 7.

Might be a bit of a lowball, but ya get all of em' off your hands pretty easy. :)

hmmm sounds like a good offer...but I have a BETTER plan;)


Im going to post them on ebay seperately, and leave out the fact that they are TI-82. Ill just take pictures of them and let the people figure it out themselves. Ill make them sound really cool and list them at about 40$ each.

Ill link you guys to the thread when I do it. If noone buys them ill contact you Irbodden.

[paintballcowboy]

if they are unopened you will get about 40-50
if they are opened you could get anywere from 10-30

it all depends on your advritizing.

I used to work at Stapols and i got 25% off "small electronics" so i would buy a few TI-83's at a time then sell them to freshmen for like $90. They think they'r gitting a deal (they were technicaly) and I made a lil extra. That was untill i tryed to get a few for a bigger "discount":D
