Wow. Just won my first auction...

Picked these up today. Total cost with auction, gas and tolls was $134. That worked out to about $2.98 per computer. I'll take it!



I'll try to remember to post a pick. I all 45 stacked up in the Explorer SUV I drive. It was like a game of Tetris...but they did all fit.

I don't know if you currently resell working components (so disregard the advice if you do) but it would be worth your time and effort to invest in a few very inexpensive testing tools. Especially for dvd/rw and bluray drives. Also power supplies.

I'm not extremely competent when it comes to testing things like CPU's or motherboards (i am working on it) but the things i mentioned are very easy to test and greatly impact your bottom line (positively) when they test good.

I am not suggesting you purchase towers for anymore than scrap value. I am a complete cheapskate and rarely go anymore than $3 on tower lots myself, but testing and selling working components will easily triple or even quadruple your per piece earnings compared to scrap value.
