Be very careful if you sell to a buyer in a foreign country. If that case really is made of crocodile skin, you will require an export licence to ship it out of the country, since some species of crocodiles are endangered.

And to be honest, I really don't think anyone will pay $350 for a 500 regardless of the case.

You'd be surprised. I have a friend who would pay 300 for the CASE, forget the reader! I didn't say she was the brightest tool in the shed, but she's RABID about Dooney and Bourke.

I didn't say I understood her....
I own exactly ONE thing that is designer, and that is a purse. But, it is NOT Dooney & Bourke, it's America West, and it's lasted me a good five years already, and looking like it's got another ten to go. Plus that, it was a gift....

Seriously....she's one of these friends that I love to hang out with her simply because I don't get her. At all. She's rabidly into designers, has a wedding ring that could knock out a horse (or blind him, if her hand's in direct sunlight), and shops at all the places on Chicago's Mag Mile. That being said, I don't get the mentality either. Functionality over form, (in other words, a Walmart purse holds my stuff just fine, why would I pay 600 dollars for something that does the same thing?), although if functional is also pretty, I'm all for it. With all the money this woman has spent on designer purses and blinding diamonds, I could have three or four ebook readers and 10 or so gigs worth of ebooks.

If you don't get any bites here, have you thought about trying e-bay?

To be honest, I don't see anyone paying the same amount for a 500 that they can for a 505. The case is not going to make that much of a difference. You'd be best off selling the 500 and the case separately.

I don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but basically you should be able to sell the 500 on ebay (or even here) for between $125-$150.
You can realistically sell the case on ebay (or here) for between $60-$75. I wish you all the best in whatever decision or path you wish to take regarding your items. Sincerely, Don

Still too expensive. With all the Kindle 1's being sold, you'll never sell an old 500 for as much as you think.
