    I know that when we first started our computer store a few years back, we bought machines much like the ones you have as "Builders". We were able to stock machines on our shelves that we refurbished quickly by buying them in lots on eBay and then working the magic on them ourselves. I guess it really comes down to how much of a profit you want to make and how fast. I would suggest listing them on Craigslist in business section as well as the computer section. Also you can list them for trade if there is something you are interested in getting yourself. We do a deal at our store where we will trade 5 scrap computers that are whole for one working current machine. My fellow scrappers in our area have done that with us a lot, simply because they are more comfortable moving scrap than working machines. You have a lot of options, you just have to think outside of the box.

    You can also list them on Craigslist in other cities near you with the option of you delivering them for a fee.

    Another option is to consign them through a local computer store.

    Just a couple of ideas

    There may a million better places to live than Iowa, but none of them are home!
