Laptops: Does your buyer prefer whole or broken down?

That's not what I'm asking. What I'm asking. I am asking if your buyer literally prefers you send him/her untouched laptops or if he'd rather you went ahead & broke them down into their component parts.



Reason is, I got a few laptops today, and I got a line on several more, and I know that I've seen a couple of buyers actually ask their sellers not to disassemble their LTs. I am curious if this is common.

Plus, I REALLY wanna take a peek inside this old Compaq Armada 7730MT but I don't want it to cost me $$ doing so. This thing DOES NOT EVEN HAVE A PLACE TO INSERT A CD DISK!! LOL. Gotta be from about 1997 or 8 at the latest.

Unless they are truly old, sell them on ebay.com

That is what I do with all my laptops and always make more than scrap value on them.

When your listing them and unsure if they work, just put in the title "for parts/non working"

The older ones, scrap them.
