RE: A Big December - DIY Recycling For Income - More Examples Of 100% Free Inventory Saved & Sold For $724
Hey m8, question.
With stuff like the printer motherboard, how do you know it works? Do you hook it up to power and test?
I have a couple of boxes full of old computer parts, thinking I should turn them into money :)
He sells those untested as parts/repairs. Just have to say the item probably works but you aren't sure as you are unable to test it. It'll sell.
Most things I do test, but I do sell things as “untested for parts/repair as is” when I can’t fully test or validate with 100% certainty. I don’t offer returns so it’s a final sale.
This motherboard came from a printer that turned on and seemed to function, but had no ink to fully test. Therefore, I sold this to a guy who had his USB port snap off and the printhead as is to Belize. They always sell, just at a discounted price and a little slower.
P.S. - if the parts are easily identifiable, check them out by model number on eBay to see what they’re selling for (not the price that’s being asked for). I don’t handle computer parts that often. Most boards are from printers, tv’s and appliances as they’re constantly out for me to salvage.
Awesome thanks m8 I thought that may have been the case but wasn't sure, want to get more into thrifting as some income on the side. Now that I have a mortgage want to pay it off as fast as possible.
