HELP ME CHOOSE WHAT TO TRADE!!! Please vote! - Blu-ray Forum

redboxcar · 10-28-2008, 05:29 AM

Alrighty, I'll give a quick rundown... I've been looking to trade a few things that I have and no longer really want... among them, a Nintendo Wii Console with Wii Fit, 3 extra games, extra set of controllers... an AT&T Palm Treo 750... and an Asus EEE PC 7" laptop...

I listed it on craigslist and have three offers. Please help me choose which one is the best value.

(1)
FOR ME: Sony Vaio VGN-TZ390 laptop... approx. 10 months old
FOR THEM: Wii + all accessories and EEE PC
REASONING: The TZ is a high end laptop that retails for $2000+... it's the best bang for buck. I could one of these for my schoolwork/travel...

(2)
FOR ME: Sony Vaio VGC-LT35E all-in-one desktop... okay condition (not bad, but visibly used)
FOR THEM: Wii + all accessories, and EEE PC
REASONING: blu-ray player, 22" hdtv/all in one computer...

(3)
FOR ME: Sony 80GB PS3... like new
FOR THEM: ONE of the three options (Wii, Phone, or Laptop) (they haven't decided which one yet)
REASONING: Can be used in the room as a blu-ray player, most equal trade

So please help me figure out which one to choose...

Trading is a delicate business because the value of what is offered vs what is wanted can be perceived differently depending on who you trade with. Personally I would have a hard time deciding what to give in exchange of what I want. But if I were you I think I'd go for a PS3.

I think this something you should decide yourself.

I would take the PS3. Computers and laptops go obsolete in a week but the PS3 will be state of the art for years.

If you can really trade a wii for a PS3... sounds like a great deal to me.
