Want to sell old software to clear out some drawers (Macromedia, Adobe CS3, etc). eBay or somewhere else?

Hi gang,

I hope your new year is going well for all. I've been extremely quiet during the holidays and am getting back to clearing things out for the new year. So, I have some old software I'd like to boot out the door. Where would be the best place to sell these and what do you think I'd get for them?

Macromedia Studio 8 (it's Mac & Windows XP Compatible)
Adobe CS3 Web Premium
Windows XP Professional w/Service Pack 2
Quickbooks Pro 2009 PC
Parallels 3 (thought it was 4, but just double checked)
Disk Warrior V4 for Intel and PowerPC Macs - new in box
Microsoft Office Project Standard 2007 - new in box

I'm thinking it would yield a total of $400 - $500 for all of those together but maybe I'm smoking crack. Please tell me if I am, or if any of you would like to buy them from me before I go through the hassle of eBay or some other online seller. Yeah, also, what's the other place people keep mentioning besides eBay lately? I know there's also Amazon as a private seller but not sure that may be the best route.

Thanks all and have a great Sunday...

Edited to add: this CS3 Web Premium just sold for $365 on eBay yesterday. Anyone know how easy the transfer process is? [www.ebay.com]

you could also sell on Amazon, much easier than eBay IMHO, although they take about 18-20% comission. I guess eBay takes about the same for software, does anyone know for sure?

"Adobe limits an individual to a maximum of four license transfers in a lifetime." - WTF?
