After years of being loyal with you and your family, maybe it is about
time to get rid of your used PC. Perhaps you could purchase a newer
model, or just settle down with the other unit that you already have
bought. However, a used PC is not like a used paper that you can just
throw in the trash. It must go through proper and
environmentally-abiding processes, or else you might even face serious
charges against you. So, what are your choices for how you'd like to
finally let go of your beloved used PC?
1. Sell it for second
hand purchase. A lot of people all over the world are very much
interested in buying a used PC, because it is essentially more
affordable than brand new ones. If you'd like to make even just a small
amount of money out of your used PC, then this will be a perfect way for
you. Just prepare your computer for being on sale. Check all its
specifications and its over-all condition, evaluate and list down
everything that you think a buyer should know about. If you want, you
can even do a few enhancements to increase your unit's viability.
2. Next step would be to find advertising means. The easiest and cheapest way for this is to go online
and post your selling information. You can even choose to go to various
and multiple websites such as eBay, Amazon, Multiply, and even your
personal social networks such as Multiply, Tumblr, Facebook and MySpace.
Or, if you do not want to make your used PC available for long-distance
and overseas buyers, you can just do the conventional advertising ways.
You can have your ad printed in the local paper, your can post posters
in your neighborhood, or you can ask for friends to help you find a
buyer.
3. Donate. If you
think that your computer have done all its duties well enough for you
and your family, then perhaps you can let it go without further adieus.
There are a lot of charities and foundations that collect used computer
units for fund raising. You can choose from all sorts of advocacies
– children, elderly, victims, nature, rehabilitation, private groups.
If you want to dispose your used PC and be able to help others at the
very same time, then why not just give it up for free?
