Discussion Where to sell PC components?

[Franknj229]

Let me know if there's a more appropriate forum to post this in...

I wanted to do a new build in March with a 5090, but then couldn't get one. I didn't want to buy any parts until I did, but figured it was safe to get the case, since I was100% sure it was the one I wanted. Now that I finally got a 5090, I've changed my mind about the case.

Doh!

Anyway, I have a brand new, unopened, Thermaltake Tower 600 Snow Edition, Chassis Stand Kit Snow Edition, and front LCD Panel Kit.

Looking for suggestions on where you guys sell parts. I'm hoping there are PC-centric sites. Not a big fan of C-List and FB Marketplace.

Thank you for any suggestions!

Awesome! Didn't even realize there was one! Ha!

Thanks!

Soooo.... my classifieds post was deleted. Apparently I can't post pictures of the unopened boxes that the brand new items are still sealed within, in place of pictures of the actual items. 🙄

Obviously I don't want to open and unpackage the items if I'm looking to sell them, so do you have any other suggestions on sites that specialize in buying/selling computer related parts/components?

I'm not trying to do anything shady here. I'm just trying to get some money back and help someone else get a brand new item at a discount.

Thanks!

The unopened box aspect is a problem. People have been known to buy empty boxes (or other contents). That is why that requirement exists.

Thus the reason for pictures of the actual items up for sale vice the boxes. How is the potential purchaser to know that the boxes don't actually contain product but contain bricks or blocks of wood to weigh the same (happens more often than you think), this is just common sense.

Yeah, I get it. People are a-holes. Just sucks that it affects everyone who isn't.

Honestly though...If I were intent on just ripping someone off, how is posting a pic of the item going to stop me from still sending them blocks of wood?

Chances are that if you are going to go to the trouble of following our requirements you're going to actually ship the item/s. If not, you lose access to the site, permanently. Not too many want to take that chance.
