Best place to sell new build PC

JGBR · 3 Jul 2010 at 21:41

Not sure wither allowed to ask this:

Got a new build, only a few months old (all parts from OCUK),

wondering best place to sell it? Ebay? Gumtree?

Any suggestions?

You could try selling it on the Members Market here if you wanted to, you've got enough posts and been a member long enough, you just need to enable your Trust. Details of how to do this are in the FAQ.

Make sure you give the MM rules a good read, you don't want to break them its not a good start and you will receive a suspension.

Does the Members market take awhile to come up?

iNPUt · 3 Jul 2010 at 22:09

Should be instant (I think).

It used to take up to a day I think but it should be automated now, you could try a hard refresh (ctrl+F5) though just to check if you're still looking at a cached version of the forums. It should be down below Distributed Computing when it appears.

It used to always be manually set up, which could take a little while. Not sure if that's still true. When it turns up it'll be down towards the bottom of the forum list.

And I can only echo the above. Read the rules and read them again. They're very strictly enforced - with good reason.

Specs, Parts that I want to get rid of and price doesnt seem to breach rules. Bought all the stuff from OCUK anyway LOL

Can't price check outside of MM if that's what your asking, its against forum rules.

There is a price check section of MM.

But if i said, I wanted to get no less then (IE 350 quid) that seems fine?

iNPUt · 3 Jul 2010 at 22:23

Well you should start with a price then see if there is any interest, the after 24 hours if there has not been that much demand (people asking for lower price etc) then you can do a price drop, with a price drop bump (£340 for example). Can do as many price drops as you like after 24hours to the previous one.

If you don't want to go lower than a stated price do a price drop and say you won't be willing to go any lower.

People do make offers, lots of time they are met in the middle if they are not stupidly low.

I stupidly build a machine just to play a specific online game and of course now don't like the online game DUH LOl

MiNxYyY · 3 Jul 2010 at 22:27

if you list your spec in the thread, then you can set your price for what you feel is good enough for you.

JGBR · 3 Jul 2010 at 22:43

I'm afraid you can't ask for price checks outwith the Members Market which has a specific sub-forum for them but if you haven't got access there within the next day or so then please email one of the moderators who can then check it out for you.
