I don't know why anyone would buy or sell a computer on ebay by jm
new anyway. I figured out on a 359 price (which is currently what I charge) then I would lose $27.00. This is over half of my profit. And if I jack the price up, then I make it too much.

Do you build on demand or have a stock? by jm
Do you have an inventory or kinda just wait until somebody asks you for a PC? It looks like I have to have a little faith if I decide to really persue building PCs for people and start picking up good buys as the come along. A lot of good buys in the circulars around here. I might get burned...
