    Looking into buying 24"+ monitors (working or not working)

    Hey everyone, I hope you’re all doing well. It’s been an interesting start to the year up here. We’ve had another really warm winter so spring cleaning came early which is a great way to start the year.


    In my abundant amount of free time (just kidding, I don’t have that) I decided to mess around with fixing a few 27” monitors. After doing that and having quite a bit of fun fixing them I am looking into opening a buying ad for 24”+ monitors. Before I do that, I was figuring I would check and see if there’s any interest before I get the ball rolling. Why am I not posting a buying ad you might ask. Well…I bought a buying ad slot 6 months ago and still have not seen my buying ad. Until admin actually does something I’m going to have to do this instead.

    I am mainly looking for units that have intact screens, but are dead/don’t turn on. I may also be interested in just buying all of your 24”+ monitors as well. Initially I’m looking for 1 pallet of units, but might be interested in more depending on how many people have.

    Units would need to have stands. I can get away with no stands on the dell units (with a small price reduction), but the other units are not so easy. Monitors would need to have intact screens (no cracks, deep scratches, or gouges). I have no idea what prices would look like, but figure $3+ per unit (based on brand and size). If this is something that is of interest I will definitely get a buying ad up (if admin ever approves my buying ad that I bought 6 months ago).

    Anyhow, feel free to email me or send me a PM if you have questions.

    I would think shipping would be the issue especially with the stands.....are you paying the shipping?

    I would likely be paying the shipping if a certain quantity is met.

    We purchase laptop computers and many components for greater than scrap value. We offer a shipping reimbursement program.replies
