    You turned something you never used into cash.

    As long as you don't turn that cash into something you never use, you've come out ahead.

    Did you sell it as a "bundle"?

    I think you could have made more selling the games individually.

    Yeah, as a bundle. Crap. I should have tried that.

    You probably undersold by a decent amount but like Hewn said, if you never used it and got $325 than I say you win.

    But you would have spent considerably more time selling them individually. You have so much excess time now, you're free to think about what to do with $325.

    Yea, maybe your time is worth more than the extra money you might have gotten? Regardless, it's done, so stop caring.

    This is where I sit, just do something cool with the cash and don't look back.

    Now you can spend all that money on getting yourself a PS3 or an Xbox 360.

    I have a 360 and my GF's ps3 right now.

    I need to do two things: get a computer and pay off bills. Sadly, this is not enough for either. But I can start on one of them with it I guess.

    You have $325 more today than you did yesterday with absolutely no downside. Sounds like a win to me.

    I think it goes without saying, but again this is H/A: Pay off the bills first!
