I know this is totally un-mac related, but I'm thinking of selling the thing and have no idea how much it's worth.

It's used but boxed with all the cables and reciept, immaculate condition, 2 controllers with nunchucks, extra set of covers for the controllers, Mario Kart (boxed, with wheel), Wii Sports, Big Brain Academy, and Wii Fit (unboxed, great condition, with carry bag and rechargeable battery kit). I know you can sell Wii Fit for £80-£90 atm, but not sure on the rest.

Any ideas?

I think you can get quite a bit for it. I had a Wii and sold it awhile back for about $500 on ebay. I had 4 controllers, 2 nunchucks, 2 games.

Really, the sky is the limit.
The general public, generally speaking, is not smart.

There are places where a new one can be had for the MSRP... and it is in stock... yet there are still some people that will pay anything... far beyond its actual monetary worth.

This is because people (again generally speaking) are not only lacking in mental capacity and common sense, but severely deficient in the whole concept of patience as well.
If they see something that they want, new or used, they will sometimes pay top dollar for it, ensuring their chance of purchase, so they don't have to wait another nanosecond to get it.

Your chances of a higher profit are even greater, as we are about to enter the dreaded "Holiday Shopping Season".
