(The Morning Call) Stupid If you're going to sell your computer, there are ways of determining whether or not your potential buyer is trustworthy. If he pepper-sprays you and steals your computer, he's probably not that trustworthy   (mcall.com) divider line 22

When in doubt, post date at least a couple of pieces of kiddie porn, and put it in a hidden folder.

It doesn't even have to be real.

Cops will gladly settle for a 12 year old's face photoshopped onto a 60 year old's body.

I hope it was infected with some really nasty viruses that will be difficult, if not nearly impossible to remove.

If you buy used electronics from ANYONE - I don't care who it is - you are an idiot.

This is why I don't sell used electronics to anyone except my immediate family. Once I'm done with whatever outdated piece of crap I'm using, I reformat the hard drive, drill a hole through it, and pitch it in the nearest landfill so it can contaminate the groundwater.

I usually donate monitors to Goodwill, though.

People buy used computers? I mean other than pawnshops and smuggy Mac users?

Unless of course you were trusting him to pepper-spray you.

No sir, you are the idiot who can't see the logic in knowing technophiles who constantly buy new hardware for their PC and sell the 'old' (by like 4-6 months from release) parts to family and friends.

/In this case I'm that guy
//Friends enjoy the 'well tested' parts for cheaper then stores
///really helps put a dent in this addiction to PC hardware for me too

Typical Total Farker, after Total Fark account expired, is merely suffering from post Traumatic Total Fark Syndrome.

They need your $5 people, won't you please help?

Nice try, but everyone knows the party van is always just across the street. I do a low level format on everything i buy, even the new stuff.

They might arrest old doglover for the drinkin' or the bon fires, but I'll be damned if they'll get me for what's on someone else's hard drive. Nuke it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure.

Yeah,

Well, you never know if it was built by a kid who will eventually turn out to be a sith. That sort of purchase can result in the death of your entire family. Buying it from a Jawa is definatly not a good idea.

The guy is an idiot. Who in their right mind drives into Allentown, AT NIGHT! to sell anything (except drugs). There is more to this story.


I haven't been up to Allentown in some time. The last time, a group of us went to see a band one of our friends was in and ended up in the middle of a fight between two waring groups of skin heads.

Disappointing. The market is ripe for quality used dildo franchising.

You'd be surprised, shocked, and scared by how many old graphics cards, ram, and processors I've sold on Amazon.com used, let alone how much I got for them.

i usually only buy used electronics from people i know, they are usually too sensitive to being farked over in some way. i have old computer parts on ebay years ago, most notably a set of 12mb Voodoo II cards that i got 50+ for each and an old STB PCI video card with 4MB of ram that sold for like 45 dollars.
