I'm looking to put a 12x Aurora C6 build up for sale in the B/S/T section. I'm trying to figure out the price... I've put together a list of parts in the build:

1 x BDR-S06J 405nm 12x sled (BDR12X) = ~$51.99
1 x Aurora C6 Host w/ Heatsink = ~$20.00
1 x Aixiz Head = ~$1.00
1 x Mohgasm Driver = ~$8.00
2 x 16340 = ~$3.00
Total: = ~$85.00

It has less than ten minutes of usage, and it's run at ~425mA for longer life. Does $80, not including shipping, seem like a fair price? Anyone have any input as to what they would sell this for? Should I be looking for more or less?

Thanks

This should probably sell for $120-$150, depending on the output power. Those are decent prices and they will probably sell. If you sell it for ~$100, it should go rather quickly.

If you sold it for $80, I would buy the VERY moment mine sells. No questions asked (other than what's your paypal.) I agree, you could get more, I'd start it at $125 and work my way down if need be.

Alright, I'll start it at $120 then. Sorry bloompyle, I'll let you know if it gets down to 80 :)

Since I've never sold anything here before either, it might be useful to have a middle man... any recommendations? Should I find a buyer before I find a middle man?

well everyone is saying that $120, but in my opinion thats bit high, because we dont know the output of this laser (unless its the one in your sig), LMP pic or chart? lens? driver? also nothing against you skir0987, but is this your build? if it is, then to put that kind of price on a build, from a builder with no known building portfolio or past record of builds, reliability, build quality etc. at the end it is your laser, so it is up to you on the price tag ;)

again, nothing against you of course, but few things potential buy might have in their head....certainly i think of all these things.

good luck with your sale :beer:

Yes, it is my build. I know that because I'm a first-time seller trust and reliability can be an issue (I've seen many threads of sales gone wrong), which is why I suggested that an intermediary might be required. I can post pictures of the innards if that helps with the build quality piece--driver is secured down to the pill with thermal adhesive and I used silicon wire and shrink tubing.

I do understand your concern though, thanks for the heads up.
