Some Prebuilt Systems are built with Standards. The term “people” comes with an implication that everybody pre building PC’s are out to get you. That’s a healthy notion to operate on but the moment you start singling out a broad vocational field, as a singular group, Well now you just look like an reductive child.
For those who might question this you also have to look at the competition from like AMD cuz even though Intel CPUs hold their value AMD can match it and performance and be much cheaper nowadays especially for gaming before anyone asks I'm not a fanboy i bye what's affordable for my budget and I also look at the size of the components to see if it fits or not
@@Ziyoblader exactly! You can literally get a used R7 2700x or new R5 5500 and pair it with a RX 5700XT for $200-250 and have a insane 1080p set up for AAA gaming like I do. The 4k cards will cost you as much as a beefy 1080p build.
Some people sell for cheap just so they can get rid of the item / declutter right away. I’m kind of like that too, especially with gadgets. Fact is, not a lot of people would pay close to retail for a pre-used item, no matter how “new” it looks.
I understand that, I'm the opposite, I buy all of my used tech for people like you... 😂 I guess if you have always had $$$$ floating in your bank account, it's no big deal.

Dad bought me a pre built asus rog gaming pc when i was like 15 for $700 at bestbuy. We brought it back because it was sluggish like something was wrong hardware wise. The guy at geek squad just told me to go get another one and the only one left was the $1600 version, they both looked the same, so i brought it to the front and he said okay yeah its the same one and we walked out.
i got a crazy deal on a low end gaming laptop for 220$ online and those laptops sell for 650$ still lol, so i got a crazy deal, its a lenovo ideapad gaming, was a little dirty but overall works great (yea i cleaned it really well, was satisfying xD)
Similar thing happened to me when I was 15 too that’s crazy. My dad got me my first pc from Best Buy on Black Friday, at a really good discount (normally $1,250 bought it for $950). Turns out the operating system was corrupt or something and they just swapped it out with another PC, but since it was after Black Friday most of their mid tier stuff was gone so I got an $1,800 pc with a 1080ti, i7 7700k when they were top of the line, the original pc had a 1060ti and an i5 in it.
considering that CPU and GPU are approaching 5yrs old,it actually makes sense for this to run for that price. especially if he had that card for more than 3yrs. id say he sold it to you for $100 less than what it shouldve gone for,but $600 is definitely too expensive

A similar thing happened to me too, got a samsung gaming monitor, a rx480, i7 3770 pc for 20$, the person was moving interstate and couldn't carry all of this, and her flight was in an hour
That PC is not stolen, thats my buddy. He couldnt sell it for over $500 to anyone so he just gave it up for $350. $400 is about fair. Its 6 years old and a prebuilt so...
$500 is probably what he will get if he sells it. Always have to sell for less than someone else can sell for unless the value of it doesn't depreciate or goes up over time.
Yeah, aren't they about to release the 5XXX series GPUs this year? Making that 2080 THREE generations old, and slower than my even older 1080ti in many applications...
When you find a PC that's cheap and is OBVIOUSLY worth more, the person selling it to you is either an addict selling his own stuff to get more drugs, selling other people's stuff to get more drugs, or is a thief selling stolen goods. Be more responsible when you buy things.

Post about it where anyone can claim it's theirs? I seriously want to know what they could've done If it's being careful about buying from a thief, then yeah that's fair.

I think this isn't very logical in the long term. You might not have time now, but if you're underselling it you'll end up having to put more work towards buying it back in the future when you do have time. Just keep it, unless the money is really tight, and even then, don't sell the expensive things on a whim.
Yeah, I got a 3090FE pc build for $1100, the guy included a 1080p, 240 HZ Acer Predator Monitor, a hyper X mouse, and a mechanical keyboard. The PC also came with two M2s. I was surprised at first, but when I picked it up and saw the 4090 build on his desk, I understood lol.
I remember when i first bought a pc off marketplace........ i was so young and had noone around me to tell me it was a bad idea or if it was good. Fully grown man sold it to me claiming it could play any game absolutely perfect. He also said he was gonna leave all his games on their (which he did) and also left all his personal messages on their from messenger and photos of him and his family. I just reset the computer and wiped it and later found out it had some pretty shitty parts in it which sucked but i had my fun with it at that age. My fault for not doing the research but man i was excited lmao. Now the one thing i didnt understand was the fact he had spent so much money on a collection of games that were unplayable almost on his pc. Very weird and confusing situation
PC selling market is really depressed, plus the poor condition the PC was in probably depressed demand. Most people that want to buy a full PC 2nd hand probably doesn't have fhe knowledge to upgrade or repair it. Its a prime candidate to buy, upgrade to 2 sticks of ram, give it a nice case with rgb and sell it. You could sell it cheap to a kid if you feel bad making too much profit. I miss your RUclips videos. What are you up to now ?
I’ve gotten a 3080 with 11700k pc for $580, 2x 3060ti pc for $410, and 3070 pc for $480. FROM THE SAME DUDE. He was mining on it. It was the height of my pc flipping career.
Done it myself. I cant remember the speccs, but I was going through a really rough time, so I undersold it. Needed the money, and I was honestly going through such a rough time that I wasnt actually able to deal with a sell. Undersold, out the door, I felt better.
I got a laptop from some teenager who's mom told him to sell it, it was a 13th gen i7, 4060, 16gb ddr5, 1tb ssd for $300. Always keep a lookout on marketplace and lowball. Some don't get offers and run back.
Happened to me during covid. A dude sold me a 1070 and 9700 with AIO, MSI gaming motherboard, 16gb RGB 3200mhz ram, 750w EVGA psu and 1tb M.2 in a fractal case with RGB fans for... £500. But he also gave me a razer keyboard, a 144hz 1080p monitor and a razer RGB mouse pad. The card alone was worth £400 in the mining boom. He just had no clue.
Maybe don't use your money for emergencies. It's okay to starve, okay to feel dirty, okay to trek to work/school, etc. The only thing you should prioritize is light bills, internet bills and the gaming PC. Then you can sort out the emergencies however you want 😊
It's probably not stolen. If it was stolen he would he selling it on the street for $100 or less to get rid of it.. not advertise it on Facebook for a fair price.
That CPU and GPU is exactly what I got in 2019 for my current PC 😭 My Z390 motherboard died after 4 years, so I had to buy an upgrade pack due to the motherboard being crazy expensive now since they don't manufacture it anymore.
It shouldn’t be 6-700 dollars unless you just have extra money to spend. A PC like that probably cost 450 to build. He was right to sell it to you for 350

This is super common and why im always browsing facebook marketplace. Just got back into PC gaming and found a $300 rig with a 1660 super and ryzen 5 5600x 32gb ram . Was a teenagers who was ina pinch for $. He knew it was worth more, but the convenience of getting it gone quickly is more important than you think.
Maybe because The market's already inflated with so much computer merchandise that is hard to sell computers used when there's already a lot of them online being sold. It's almost like vehicles how a vehicle could be worth $20,000 and it can't be sold for within years and all sudden it's now at $5,000 price tag.
I've did basically the same, I bought a pc for $69 (not joke, in my currency it is 1500 CZK), it has i5 3570k, GTX 1060 6gb and 8 gb of RAM, the GTX 1060 now cost around $100, it can play cities skylines on around 30 fps. More info in video on my channel.
Same thing happened to me. A guy was selling an older gaming laptop on eBay for 350. It was an Eluktronics laptop with an i7, gtx 1060, 32 GB RAM, 1.5 TB storage with a 17-inch screen. The laptop was lightly used and in almost perfect condition which made me kinda suspicious. Supposedly his job bought him a new one. For the price point I got a steal.
That PC seems similar to mine. I paid a little over 2000 for it (new and custom built) in 2017. I would feel bad if I had to sell it at that price today.
Sounds crazy but literally a week ago now I went and met up with a guy in my area from a Facebook marketplace listing, he had a bunch of dell optiplex’s and a few other branded office computers with upgradeability all of which listed for $25 (Lowered down from $50) so when I got there I spent a few minutes searching and found a gaming pc with an i5-6600k, MSI GTX 1050TI and 16gb of dual channel G-Skill red 2400mhz and he let me walk off with it for $25 been gaming on it since and not a single problem.
if you already have a pc but use it for work and not gaming I would recommend keeping it and using it for gaming/PCVR gaming because of that i7 processor since PCVR it heavy on processors. That's what I would do! :)
I vibe with this man. I cut out a god damn piece of my case because my GPU (3080 TI) was too large. I spent 0 any fancy rgb shit or overpriced mainboards.
That isn’t that bad It’s kind of good performance for a good compare just clean a little bit and replace a cooler and add some new RGB fans and a new case so it looks great
Bro I feel the same but apparently this guy works at a pc repair shop. I had an alienware R8 from like 5 years ago that had a 1070 and 16 gigs of ddr4. He traded my an $800 laptop for that little pos. Idk if I got scammed or what but it was up on facebook marketplace for $300 for 2 months before he messaged me.
My bro bought me a pc on marketplace for $800.... got 32gig, 4060, apparently amazing specs etc. I don't know my pc's but my friends are shocked how cheap I got it and dont believe me. I'm just glad I can play my games on steam again without black screening and tearing.
I’m thinking due to how cheap a lot of people can be, they view the computer as being cheaper as they could build a new computer around a similar price with new hardware
I got my pc from Facebook marketplace for 250 and it was a 3060 graphic card 11th intel generation cooling system with 32gb of ram. With 3 fans inside the pc which is crazy for 250 thought I was getting ripped off but had it for two months and works perfectly running around 300 fps on fortnite
The issue is, no one will pay the amount it's actually worth when its used especially with a 2080. Can make a faster pc brand new with a 30/40 series for $700.
It's very hard to sell a pc or anything for that matter for more than 500 dollars these days The dude did it cuz he was desperate and didn't want to bother selling it on ebay, he rather sell it locally for smaller dough, hoping it would be quicker. You can get very good deals because of people like that. Just because someone is selling it that low, doesn't mean he stole it. My pc have similar specs and I would probably let my pc go for that price if I needed the dough fast.
In 2019 i assembled pc, i5, 9600k, 16gb 3200 ram, rtx2070( 3080 now 850 euro 2022), artic cooling 280, 1700+ euro(italy) . Wanna update, but i have other priorities!!!! And it still going very good!
I took a trade offer with someone that was selling a PC with a ryzen 7 5700x and a 3070. I had a gaming laptop i was trying to get rid of with nowhere close to those specs. All bro said was “I desperately need a laptop”. So i was skeptical cuz like no way this guy would give up a pc like this for a mid gen laptop. Sure enough, when i got it home and booted it. Ryzen 7 5700X, RTX 3070, 32 gb ram, and a 2tb ssd. (Laptop i traded had an i7 and a 2060. Tbh i also lowkey feel like i stole it 😳
Giving the benifit of the doubt as i sold a similar specced PC for $400, i could have sold it for 3k during the pandemic but i didnt wanna take it with me cause i was moving like 2 days later.
I had something similar happen a while ago but the guy was here on a work visa and had to go back to his country. Sold everything at a discount as he was not so attached to things.
Had pretty same deal in Germany. Guy sold me I7-9700 and 2060 Super for 325€, with mouse and keyboard. It runs perfectly, and in my case, it definitely wasn't stolen. I mean, guy lived in good flat, and had completely new pc, so I guess he just decided to make someone happy in this way.
Prob guy needed the money. Been there, sold quite collectables and my consoles as i had some hard months and i sold most of those things at the lowest. Damn, the way he said okay bro when he recvd the 350, yo can hear that shit hurted more than u think.
I know a lot of people are saying that the PC was stolen but that might not be the case. We have to remember that everyone isn't as computer savvy as we are so selling a pc that doesn't even work for $350 really isn't that suspicious. For a normal person you just got rid of a machine that you can't even use and got enough money to cover half of next months rent. For a computer savvy individual like Kris he just got the deal of a lifetime and can easily clean and fix this PC up to then flip for some sweet cash. It's all about perspective and not everyone has yours.
It’s because absolutely NO ONE will buy a used gaming pc from a random person unless that’s ALL they can afford. I tried selling a brand new pc I built for less than the parts cost from micro center (when all on sale for 20%+ off plus deals) tools months to sell and lost 300 bucks and ended up having to throw in a 240hz monitor gaming chair and desk to get it to actually sell worst experience ever lol

For those who might question this you also have to look at the competition from like AMD cuz even though Intel CPUs hold their value AMD can match it and performance and be much cheaper nowadays especially for gaming before anyone asks I'm not a fanboy i bye what's affordable for my budget and I also look at the size of the components to see if it fits or not

Same thing happened to me. A guy was selling an older gaming laptop on eBay for 350. It was an Eluktronics laptop with an i7, gtx 1060, 32 GB RAM, 1.5 TB storage with a 17-inch screen. The laptop was lightly used and in almost perfect condition which made me kinda suspicious. Supposedly his job bought him a new one. For the price point I got a steal.
That PC seems similar to mine. I paid a little over 2000 for it (new and custom built) in 2017. I would feel bad if I had to sell it at that price today.
I got a similar deal. Same CPU i7-9700 at $350, though it WAS an RTX 2060 so not quite as good on that front. Came with 32GB DDR4, though.
The prices he wrote in the spec description are pretty accurate. Maybe a little high the cpu price and high the motherboard price

if you already have a pc but use it for work and not gaming I would recommend keeping it and using it for gaming/PCVR gaming because of that i7 processor since PCVR it heavy on processors. That's what I would do! :)
I vibe with this man. I cut out a god damn piece of my case because my GPU (3080 TI) was too large. I spent 0 any fancy rgb shit or overpriced mainboards.
That’s litteraly the same as my dads current pc when he first built it (except the video card was probably like an ancient gtx 5 something)
That isn’t that bad It’s kind of good performance for a good compare just clean a little bit and replace a cooler and add some new RGB fans and a new case so it looks great

The issue is, no one will pay the amount it's actually worth when its used especially with a 2080. Can make a faster pc brand new with a 30/40 series for $700.
It's very hard to sell a pc or anything for that matter for more than 500 dollars these days
The dude did it cuz he was desperate and didn't want to bother selling it on ebay, he rather sell it locally for smaller dough, hoping it would be quicker.
You can get very good deals because of people like that.
Just because someone is selling it that low, doesn't mean he stole it. My pc have similar specs and I would probably let my pc go for that price if I needed the dough fast.

I took a trade offer with someone that was selling a PC with a ryzen 7 5700x and a 3070. I had a gaming laptop i was trying to get rid of with nowhere close to those specs. All bro said was “I desperately need a laptop”. So i was skeptical cuz like no way this guy would give up a pc like this for a mid gen laptop. Sure enough, when i got it home and booted it. Ryzen 7 5700X, RTX 3070, 32 gb ram, and a 2tb ssd. (Laptop i traded had an i7 and a 2060. Tbh i also lowkey feel like i stole it 😳

Basic year 2000 build but with newer oarts. Nothing wrong with it.
Seem like a fair price considering all the loose cable and looks worn out so we dont know how much mileage it has left

Prob guy needed the money. Been there, sold quite collectables and my consoles as i had some hard months and i sold most of those things at the lowest. Damn, the way he said okay bro when he recvd the 350, yo can hear that shit hurted more than u think.
bought mine at 384 usd with i5 9400f+ rtx 2060, ddr4 16 gigs and 1 tb hdd, 126 gigs ssd with speakers , keyboard , razer mouse etc
That is still an upgrade from what is have
might not have known what he had but he definitely knows how he got it💀💀
I know a lot of people are saying that the PC was stolen but that might not be the case. We have to remember that everyone isn't as computer savvy as we are so selling a pc that doesn't even work for $350 really isn't that suspicious.
For a normal person you just got rid of a machine that you can't even use and got enough money to cover half of next months rent. For a computer savvy individual like Kris he just got the deal of a lifetime and can easily clean and fix this PC up to then flip for some sweet cash.
It's all about perspective and not everyone has yours.
It’s because absolutely NO ONE will buy a used gaming pc from a random person unless that’s ALL they can afford.
