Default Places To Sell Computer

If this is at all not allowed, then delete the thread, but I am just wondering, where is a good place I could sell my computer? I know ebay or craigslist, but is there anywhere else? I am not trying to sell it on here, I was just wondering if there was any other places. Thanks!

Those two options are probably your best bet. I wound up selling my old Socket A rig on Craigslist for ~$100 or so. You'll probably get more money if you part it out, though.

Maybe put an ad in the newspaper? And if you simply want to get rid of your old computer, you can take it to a PC recycler. You usually have to pay to bring stuff there, though.

you can list it on www.buysell.com. People in your local area will contact you with the information you provide, and you will have a buyer in no time

i live in NY so I can't use buysell

I was thinking of a computer recylcer, but how much money can I really get for that?
I was thinking like 800 for my computer all in all

you could also look in some forums and post it in their market place, such as the one found on this site! Also you can check the "Wanted" sections of the market forum section and see if anyone needs parts from your computer. You can get more for ur parts separately than as a whole!

that site only works for three states in the US; and NY is not one of them. so unfortunately he won't be able to sell it on there.

I would try selling it to someone you know or someone in your area. You can get more money that way.

Put an ad in your local newspaper.

You'd be surprised how many people actually look at those.

Also you could get about 5 dollars, and go find your self a photocopy machine. Prepare an add and ride around posting your system specs and contact info. Bus stops etc are good places.

You could make copies of the great deal computer with the specs and put a bunch of your phone number on the bottom of the paper in vertical format. Print and cut the bottom of those numbers a bit so people can tear a copy of the number if they're interested.

Post up the ads in bus stops and laundromats!

Or at a Community College...

You would be absolutely amazed with how many people in college need a new PC.
