Best Way to Sell Computers?

JoeLeaver · 05-06-2004

I have two desktop computers and a laptop computer I need to sell fairly quickly. They all three have English Windows.

Any ideas on the best way to advertise these for sale? I have a few posters up in store windows, but no results so far.

Thanks!
Joe

Ebay?

Or, you could donate them to a local school and get a tax deduction.

craigslist classifieds: jobs, housing, personals, for sale, services, community, events, forums. Be very careful though, lots of foreign buyers that will send you funds to cover shipping and have a shipper pick up (AKA RIP OFF). Advertise locally of course. Also, be VERY careful to not only clean off everything you want gone, but then to clean out garbage and then run a compact.

I guess it's too late to make an offer, huh?

Based on the date of the original post, I'm thinking its an IBM XT with a 5.25" floppy. Maybe it will even have a 5 Meg hard drive!!!

And it comes with the latest viewing technology, an amber monochrome monitor!!!

Also comes with MS-DOS. Proven to be much more stable that Vista.

For future reference I prefer the George Constanza method of selling computers.
"Hello, would you like to buy a computer? No? WHY NOT!?!?!?!?!"
