What's a Fair Price for My PS3 and 31 Games?

-

Hey everyone! I’m thinking about selling my PS3 along with 31 games, but I’m unsure what a fair price would be. I found that used PS3s are going for around $150 to $200 online, but some listings are way pricier. I was considering asking for $300 since I’m including the games, but I’m hesitant because I don’t want to undersell myself if there are PS3s fetching even more. Just to clarify, mine isn’t a slim model, but it works perfectly fine, and I believe the games do too. Would love to hear your opinions on this. Thanks in advance!

Right? The games usually bring down the value, so just price the PS3 where you feel comfortable.
