So I just scored a large amount of 6 ft hdmi cables @150 and ac power adapters @ 200 or so These are brand new in packaging. What would be the best way to capitalize on my new inventory? eBay, Craigslist? does anyone know of a buyer on the site that buys them? I don't want to sit on them too long or should I just scrap the lot?
I would just scrap them or try your luck on a large lot on ebay. HDMI cables sell for the cost of shipipng all the time on ebay. most companies that sell them do so just for the feedback fodder.
I agree on the HDMI. I usually just scrap them if I've got enough spares lying around. AC adapters can be a different story depending on which ones you have. Some I scrap, some I sell. Research the part numbers.
Before I toss any cable to the "that's going to the yard" pile no matter the cord I cut off the Co mentors even if it's a cheapo extension cord.
I get slightly better price for the add because it doesn't have TBD hearty plug anymore.
But wait there's more.
Most cables are low grade that usually have a gold bearing plug on one or both ends of most wires but not all when it comes to communication wire. Either I find someone to buy them as is or I get drunk and strip pins. That part sucks considering most of these plugs tend to be phone cords and cat 5 plugs. After that style it's definitely USB and vga then random stuff.
In other words when a buyer pops up it's usually time to sell you bucket of plugs.
Extension cord plugs are the same except we are talking brass and it's easier to strip.
Research model number on the adapter. My general rule is $7.99 or higher sales price and at least 2 sold on eBay in the past 90 days. They get listed.
Otherwise ac into the transformer container and cord end into dirty brass or gold end container and wire into low yield insulated wire can.
