    Cl ad not sure what to offer him

    The guy said $200 for 3 motherboards, 5 or so sticks of ram, 5 finger cards, 2 hard drives says one might be 500 gig and some cd drives and fans. I was going to say 30 but sure he is going to say no because that's along ways from 200

    Just ignore him. People live in their own realities.

    You can't educate everybody or you'd never get any scrapping done!

    You can always offer $30, but you're going to insult him. He wants Retail Pricing. You're better off emailing him and asking if he has any NON-Working computer stuff laying around that you can buy from him.

    i had a guy locally that is trying to sell Socket 7 Motherboards for $12 a piece. Wished him luck and told him I'd take anything that doesn't work off his hands...

    I just offered him 20. He didn't even have computer cases. Plus I just bought 7 whole computer and all the networking stuff the other day for $30. Some dentist on cl needed it gone. I prolly just answered my own question lol sorry but thinks everyone.
