Should I Sale or Keep?
Ok I'm planning on buying this 2,500 computer off an auction site, ebay, for $71 in 10 hrs. No one has bid on it yet. Its pretty nice. It not a name brand but its worth $2500.
Here's the bad news first. There's no monitor and no operating system. Now the specs:
AMD XP 2400 1.93GHz CPU
nForce2 4X/8X AGP DDR 400 Socket A Motherboard
120GB (7200RPM) ATA 100 IDE Hard Drive
512MB PC-2700 333MHz DDR Memory
16X DVD (48X CD-ROM)
4x DVD-R/RW Writer + Software
GeForce FX 5200 128M
SOUND BLASTER AUDIGY
400W Aluminum Neon MATRIX Case w/ Neon Side Fan
1000W P.M.P.O. (30Watts R.M.S) 3pcs Subwoofer Speaker System
10/100 Onboard Ethernet
So why would I sale it? I was thinking I could sale it for $7-800. I could use the money. I have a fairly nice computer now. I go to The Art Institute and my class are like $1000 each. What should do? I mean I could use the money

Monitors are cheap, you already have an operating system installation disk.
GET IT!

No there's 80% chance I'll get it. What Should I sell it? I could use the money. If I play my cards right I could get $800. When I do get it should I keep it.

They probably have a reserve. Like if the owner doesn't get at least 500 dollars or so for it he won't sell.

You should really do some reading into this before you buy anything. There are TONS of scams floating around ebay, so don't get sucked into one.
And I would bet that there is a reserve to be met. so it may not go for $71

Or read the fine print, you'll find a lot of bums who sell those have 'wholesale' disks. It will say that the items displayed are not what you are actually bidding on, but information on how to get them for FREE, that's more then likely what it is.
