I wish to buy about 100 - 200 used (aprox 3 years old) laptop computers. I notice that all the computer companies selling refurbished units market them for about $250. Does anyone know where I can buy bulk lots. I am interested to know where the refurbished laptop / desktop retailers buy their bulk stock. I am quite happy to purchase units that are also not working.
Purchase Bulk Laptops
- Thread starter Simister
- Start date
There are several IT companies that deal with the disposal and re-distribution of off lease computers. You could probably buy a bulk of them without an operating system for a decent amount. The small computer shop I work for uses Intechra, and we get machines for anywhere from $70-200 a piece, so you could spend a good $20K on 100 laptops.
The three biggest I know of are:
Intechra
ReTech
EPC
I had another one in mind, but I can't think of it at the moment.
powerpack

Honestly if the bot didn't already know that do think it will do well in that business? I think not.
I guess other than if he wants a government contract and then we all know how well spent that money would be.
Thanks for the info. I will check them out during the week. I don't need an operating system on the units. Appreciate your help.
