I just sold an o3ds with a9lh for $200. Second-hand o3ds go for about $80-$90 where I am :-)

I think it is fair to charge extra - installing a9lh takes many hours, more if it's your first time. Any tradesperson charges per hour, they don't say, 'well you don't need any more specialised tools than a hammer and spanner which everybody has so I won't charge you anything.' I paid extra for a modded Wii a long time ago, though I regret it now that I've found out just how easy it is (just did the vWii side of my Wii U). At the time I was confused by all the different conflicting tutorials so thought it worthwhile paying someone and avoiding all that.

No, to a workmate. I tried selling a CFW 3ds maybe six months ago, but it got taken down. So I didn't bother trying again. You can sell stuff on eBay if you're super subtle, but, if you're too subtle no buyers will notice the fact it's hacked :-/ Also I'd recommend a buy-it-now as then someone may buy it before it gets noticed and reported, instead of having to wait out the full 14 days or whatever of an auction, where it'll definitely get noticed.

Persona Q 3DS with 128gb micro sd filled with games.

Depends on you, are you recouping costs with a little depreciation for age, wear and the fact n3ds is out?

Or are you trying to profit of your community. I know business works this way. But is it in community interest? Corporation would have everyone of us working for minimum wage paying top prices for goods. Profiteering is a self centred inniatiative geared toward less than 1% of the world population. Slaves learned to profit of other slaves from the oligarcy, instead of grouping their numbers and demanding a stop to disparity in equality among the groups.
