Selling a computer to a real buyer

Does anyone have any pointers on selling a iMac, it is completely wiped clean and I am not getting any interest. Are there keywords or info, or pictures. Let me know what the key too successfully selling it would be. Thank you in advance.

Selling a computer to a real buyer

I'd get rid of the auction and just sell fixed price/immediate payment required.  Electronics is a tough market.   Plus, your buyer is likely not going to bother much with auctions and just want to purchase - if they need it for work or replacement they'll simply want to purchase and not hassle with bidding.  Leave it running now, you might have someone come in at the last minute and bid so as to not bother having to track it, wait to see if they've won, etc.

 

As for actual interest - I have a computer running now with little interest, but have sold both laptops and towers before - sometimes it takes a while.

 

Incidentally the 'information you may not have mentioned' does need to be mentioned.  A software list and full specs gives a prospective buyer more information to go on.

 

Good luck - looks like a nice system!


Hell is empty. And all the devils are here.

I checked your listing on the returns seller does not accept returns policy does not mean they won't try and return the wrong product. I would not do auction you would be better using fixed price and immediate payment. Set up international shipping in your postage policy and block all overseas countries from buying it. Because now anyone international can bid on it. Hopefully your well read up on ebay scams do not list anything you cannot afford to lose. I personally think your taking a risk selling it online. You may of course get lucky and find a real genuine buyer but it may take a while.  One more thing if you do sell it make sure you insure it when you send it.
