Last time we purcashed some second hand monitors, we found that most of them went home with various employees or got used in office. Quote:

| I would put an ad in the paper and sell them for cheap. I hadn't thought of a garage sale but that would be a good idea, too.

| ebay would be kind of a hassle for the monitors themselves, maybe you'd make $5-10 but have to charge like $40 for shipping, if ppl even bought them. The motherboards and memory would be easy to make a buck off of. You could try selling some of that stuff in the Buy/Sell/Trade forum on tech forums, some ppl might be interested.

There are some people that seem to be more addicted to not getting out-bid on items ; as appose to actually knowing the fair independant market value the item they are bidding on. As a seller, this can be a good thing for you. | |
