Remember that selling your computer will always be more profitable than selling it by parts. Before dismantling your computer, make sure that its components are clean because you do not want to be liable for carrying viruses or malware to your buyer's hardware.
Data
Privacy is a must whenever we sell our unwanted IT equipment. Before getting rid of your computer, you must delete all data stored in it because you do not want to be liable for carrying viruses or malware to your buyer's hardware.
*Back those important files up on a USB or via a cloud, so you can access them whenever you want.
Remember that data wiping requires more than just pressing a simple delete button. Selling your IT parts directly to an IT Asset Disposition company like GreenTek Solutions means that the team will wipe all data. Besides, you can also look for professional data erasure solutions to protect your equipment and confidential information.
Timing
When it comes to selling computer parts, timing really matters. Most of those old computer parts are still compatible with recent models, but their value will decrease over the years. Hard drives and CPUs pricing tend to remain stable, but it may shift around new model releases. Besides, RAM and Graphics card pricing frequently change due to trends and new releases. This fact does not mean that your computer parts value will remain the same in 10 years, so take your time to choose between recycling or reselling after you end paying up to someone pick up your equipment.
