is this a OK deal

Posted a wanted ad on craigslist for computers and and parts and lady called and said she had 4 routers,dell computer,disc drive and some other stuff for $40. Not sure on how much routers go for

I would pay her 10 bucks tops if your looking for just scrap value. Routers have a small board in them. Now if they work you could resell them for maybe $5 to $20each depending on what they are. Would be a crap shoot on ebay.

I offered her $20 but she said $40. Maybe I will offer her $10 for the other stuff and leave the routers. But got another text about a guy saying his parents has a whole attic full of computer stuff. Not sure about a price if the is one

Just remeber the $5 per complete tower and youll do fine. i usualy dont pay for the other stuff unless its alot like from my computer store clients. Dont htink I would get into paying for single pieces with CL add. But hey if you can make money then go for it.

I responded to a craigslist ad similar to this and ended up paying a little more than I normally would have, but still within what I thought I could profit on. When I picked up the stuff, (2 computers, 2 TVs, a monitor, 2 printers and a bag of PCI/motherboards for $20) I explained that I was more interested in computer towers, and told him what I pay. He called me back a week later and had 13 towers to sell. Sometimes creating a connection with someone can pay off big down the road, just something to consider.

Didn't go threw with that one. But a lady called me and said she had A LOT of computer stuff. Paid $30 and filled up after of my 6 foot bed.
