Sell it on Amazon, rather than eBay, for some reason people pay more there.

Wrong.

You're more likely to get £200 in a private sale than you are to get £150 for a trade in at a retailer.

I reckon about £180 for the lot.

Put it on Ebay, you'll get a much better price.

Well I've sent an advert off to the papers, and I'll start by trying to sell it all for £200, since it's all boxed and in mint condition. I doubt I'll get that though, but I may as well try.

I know I would get a better price trading it in at a games store, but then I would have to get more games, and since I don't really play them as much now that would seem a little pointless. So I'll see how things go with the GameCube, then I'll sell my Dreamcast next.
