Where do you guys sell your systems?

[marmasatt]

Hi All,

This actually isn't really "off topic" per se, but I wasn't sure where to put it. Where do you guys sell your built systems? Ebay, to friends and family (discounted of course), newspaper, or just part them out on the FS/FT like everyone else?. I've totally been bitten by the bug, but I can't just start building systems (ie, spending money) without getting any returns or getting rid of anything. I'll be divorced by year's end. Looking for ideas via an informal poll here. Thanks.

I only build systems for close friends and family, and I don't usually charge unless it is to teach them a lesson.

Edit: typo

unless you want to start a business, don't build for anyone but yourself.

Agreed. And it's difficult to build for anyone but yourself these days, a lot of people sell crappy parts at rock-bottom prices. You can't compete, especially if you use quality parts.

I usually only keep my mobo and CPU for 5 months max and I sell them to my friends.
