$800 5070 ti! Thank you Facebook marketplace!

$800 5070 ti! Thank you Facebook marketplace!

So stoked. I picked this up for $800. It's used and I couldn't get much info from the seller because he spoke no English and my Spanish is extremely bad, but we used the apps to communicate and he showed me it working in his rig and had the box and all the accessories!

I can flip it on eBay for $1150 but I think I might just sell my 5070 instead and keep this. I've made $3100 flipping pc parts since I started four months ago and I deserve a little treat!

Is this worth it for 50 bucks?

Any of these parts worth something on ebay? More than $50 or could make a NAS build with it?

My biggest flip yet $540 profit for 90 minutes of work!

I picked up a new in box Alienware desktop for $1560. 285k/5080/32gb RAM/2tb SSD

I was going to put the 5080 in my own rig but I really don't need it and I really do need the money so I listed it and sold it just now for $2100. I only owned it for 48 hours and did nothing lol.

It took me an hour to pick it up ten minutes to list it and 20 minutes to meet with the buyer. That's like $375/hr. Hell yeah!

Flipping Locally as a Minor

I began flipping locally on Facebook marketplace for a couple months now and have successfully sold 2 PCs. I list under my personal account as a minor with parental supervision, just so i can get a few ratings for when i become of legal age. After listing a motherboard yesterday, I was given a message for unusual activity, which requires an ID to confirm.

I am a little stuck on how to continue this hobby, and sell a PC that I have already accumulated parts for.

- Should I list on a parents account for a year or so? (kinda want those ratings though)

- Any alternative to Facebook? (preferably cash/local shipping)

- Is it worth continuing while underage?

I would love to hear any idea or experiences from others with this problem. Thanks!

Am I cooked chat?

Got a hp omen L32 from fb, was trying to enter bios by resetting the cmos battery but accidentally pulled too hard and now the whole things off. Do I just remove the good stuff and ditch this mobo/case for a new one?

Brand new in box unopened Alienware 285k/5080/32gb/2tb for $1560?

this is a smash buy, right? I would probably be trying to sell it, but I might take the 5080 out to replace my 5070 and try to sell it that way, but I'm concerned about losing a lot of value by opening the pristine box. I even have the original receipt from best buy from the seller.

The secondhand electronics market will hit £264B by 2033

The data is pretty clear → 13% annual growth, driven by cost of living pressure, hardware upgrade cycles, and a shift in how people buy tech.

Sharing the research and thinking that shapes what we're working on here regularly. Happy to discuss the numbers or where you think the market is heading.

Trying to be a flipper but not scam kids with shitty pcs

im a newbie just seeking to see if this is worth buying/upgrading then flipping for the price this dude is selling it for addition to that how can i evaluate a PC to know if its worth buying selling etc etc do i literally just find the retail price of all the parts then add all the prices together then take off like what 15% or more depending how old parts are?

Old ugly gaming PC not selling, worth upgrading looks or just part it out?

EDIT: Thanks everyone for the useful input, really appreciate this community!

Got my old gaming pc listed for $350 obo and haven’t gotten a single message in a week. It’s an i7-7700, GTX 1070, 16GB RAM, Z170N Gaming 5. I actually used it as a home server for a while after upgrading my main rig.

Performance is still honestly decent for games like GTA5, RDR2, Arma 3, etc., but the thing looks old as hell. Ugly outdated case, no RGB, no SSD installed currently, nothing that makes it look appealing on fbm.

Do you guys think it’s worth throwing in a cheap SSD, rgb fans, maybe a nicer case to make it look more modern and easier to sell, or should I just part it out at this point?

P.S. The picture was taken before I cleaned the dust and managed the cables lol.

Price curiosity not price check

As a guy that pays attention to components market worldwide and lives in Portugal (high inflation prices) I’ve always been jealous of your prices (US), but you guys seem to flip your pcs for a lot of money considering how much your parts cost in the aftermarket, I have a question, how much you think a pc with this specs would sell for there? Or much would you sell it for, if it was yours?

Specs:

Case Montech AIR 100 Lite M-ATX new
Motherboard B550 A/CSM Micro ATX reconditioned
AMD Ryzen 5 3600 used
Radeon RX 470 Nitro 8GB used
SSD NVMe Samsung 256GB reconditioned
HDD 1TB used
16GB Corsair DDR4 3200MHz (2x8GB) almost new in box
PSU BUILDER NOX 600W used
Water cooler Tempest 120mm new
4x fans Tempest new
Fan hub Arctic new
psu white extension cables new
All white build, very good presentation, everything bench tested/stress worked (good level building in general)
(Tempest is a Iberian budget brand)

Sell price ?€ goes with a Benq Zowie144hz
