Well, recently I struck gold on eBay - winning a wholesale auction for a tiny price and selling it on for more. I made roughly a 4000% profit! :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm now a lil bit interested in seeing if I can start to make some money with this, but I need to find a wholesaler (Or someone who sells really cheap :wink:). The only one I have found that might be promising is computer2000, but I need to be a registered buisness with a turnover in excess of ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã52k/annum to sign up :? .

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

eBay isn't very helpful either :?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyone know any other wholesalers? I'm just messing about really, I have a few grand to play with : (Fake whiplash ftw :-$ )

i doubt you'll find many wholesalers that will sell to you if you're not a registered business.

 

 

 

i'd stick to ebay, or maybe learn to build computers. buy parts, build it, sell computer :)

I did a quick search found tons of sellers claiming to sell information about such resellers to 'become a powerseller'

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Of course, they're most likely crap, but perhaps if you want to you can loose a few dollars trying a few out. They were 1-4 mostly electronic delivery meh.

I was hoping someone on here would have the same information, but for free :

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, and I do build computers :wink: Just not for profit ATM

Best place to buy cheap pc parts i found is scan.co.uk, overclockers.co.uk, savastore.com.

 

 

 

Best just to check there today only offers and bungle packages.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Start working your way into different markets, eg. people at your work/school/college, lan parties and online.

 

 

 

Setting up a website wouldnt be a bad idea.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The only way a small business can compete with the larger one is not on price, but quality and customer care.

 

 

 

So dont build the cheapest you can for the most profit go with the best you can make with small profit.

 

 

 

Lots of small profits are better then one or two big profits, plus when people know you make great pc they will spread the word and you'll get more customers.

Don't bother with the LAN party market, 90% or more will have the same, if not better, knowledge of building pc's :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The best possible approach to take is 'built to order'. Get a few out there for testimonies then get the website up and attempt to draw in the customers. You'll probably find that a lot of high school and university students who are not quite computer savey will take the path of having something custom made for their exact needs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The ONLY major problem is failure of any of the hardware. It'd be costing you to send things back to manufacturers to have them tested on claims of fault. How you wish to deal with that is up to you. But generally, charge a service fee only if there is nothing wrong with it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And as JoeDaStudd says, if someone gives you a max budget, get them the best possible system for their money. If you can squeeze just that extra bit of performance in where others are failing, you'll have people coming back.
