Recently I got stood up (even after confirming less than an hour before meeting) on attempts to sell 2 computers (thankfully I always meet at a gas station thats only like 5 mins from my house so not a huge deal... just a waste of time and gas).
One for $30, one for $70 (this was 2 sales, with 2 different people, both no-showed and then quit responding to messages). Both were after multiple days of back and forths.
Last week I met someone after we agreed to a price and they showed up and tried to give less than half of what was agreed upon.
It is not worth it, for me at least, to deal with people, for a few extra bucks. From now on if the item wouldn't bring more than $100, Im scrapping it (or taking apart and sending to someone on here). The general public is just too unreliable, and I dont really need the money enough to deal with the frustration. I just like taking crap apart and finding neat things in the trash.
What are other peoples policies on resellables? I feel bad when I get nice, perfectly usable things, and feel bad tearing them apart.... but dont want to deal with reselling. May just donate stuff like that from now on.
