My Computer is For Sale!

@interested.. If you only made a $20-30 profit on this, you wouldn't make it. You have to pay to get pics listed on ebay, you need to waste job time (or not job time) atleast an hour to list and build. Not to mention the time to order it. You would be losing money if you "made a $20-30 profit"

Just don't lie to people on a forum like this.

Buy this Dell, get 10% off, add an 8800GT, and your at 600$. And it's significantly better.

@sir travis D: I don't think he is making much profit, he's just selling his PC he bought a while ago and doesn't want to lose money off of it.

They're not actually that bad... sure they may not always be name brand but they are guaranteed to work. For the average user Dell is perfect.

lol we are slowly turning this guys thread into a dell debate

IMO it does seem pretty high priced but you might get lucky on ebay.

The biggest gripe I have with it, and when I see an auction that does it I instantly just hit the back button and disregard the seller:

The listings have it as "NEW!", and then on the page it says New, only to start reading the listing and have it say "like new". Just a pet peeve, but I am not the only person like this. It just wreaks of deception in most cases, and I just won't buy something from a seller that does it. Just something to keep in mind.

the whole listing is just a bit deceptive. there are so many "exaggerations" that it makes it seem like your talking to an amateur car salesman. maybe this is a bit harsh, but it does seem that way.

next time i would try and be as honest as possible. it is good to admit faults, and doing so creates credibility. people will trust you more if you do this.
