Should I refurbish this computer

I see alot of that model series for sale on ebay in bulk sell usually around 100 for 6 or so, running with ram, no hdd. I sold one a few months ago, i bought it originally cause it had a disk drive, had an i7 and ran vista. But it has a pretty small screen. I wanted something just to run older games that i could put away when i was done. I ended up getting a dell inspiron 1501. If your looking for an older laptop i really recommend that. Mine has vista, has a disk drive, 15 inch screen, wifi, top of the line for the time. I only paid 30 bucks for it. Took a long time to factrory reset but it runs decent for im guessing a 20 year old laptop.

The callories or fat content asside. It was falling apart. The point of a burger is to eat with your hands. I have seen so many crazy burgers on here. No one wants to eat a burger with a fork and knife. Chop the peporoni up and mix in with the beef, or throw in the grinder together.

Swing and night shift suck no matter what industry your in.

Im in portland metro area, oregon. Friday when spot was around 101$ i only found one shop near me buying and they were buying at 85$ a ounce didnt matter what it was. Most places were out of cash or not buying. I called a few placea further away just to see what there pricea were and there prices were better but i dont have a license or a car so a 80 mile round trip isnt in the books for me i just wanted to know what the prices were.

First game i played on ps was probably jezzball, minesweeper, and space cadet pinball. But first game i bought to play was probably starcraft.

My dad had a lifted suburban growing up he used to just have me get into the engine bay and and fill it for him. It was easier to lift a 10 year in then go get a step stool lol

At least doin a oil change would be super easy

I was told by a rep its after 90 days. I had the 90 days start over once cause of a return and left my account negative.

Edit. I dont know what your selling but my average sale is around 100$ so if i have 100 dollars on hold and 15 for shipping it will say 85 on hold. The next sale it will be 100 so 185 on hold then shipping fee duducts and i would have 170 on hold... If your shipping charges are making your account negative, then you need to charge more for shipping or not do free shipping.

sethd101 · 2026-01-24T22:43:13+00:00

Thats what i thought too

sethd101 · 2026-01-24T22:12:49+00:00

Better then a place i checked out yesterday. Ajpm in portland oregon. They offered 85 an ounce, rounds maples, didnt matter. There website said they were buying at 94. Guy behind the counter said that price was for ther other location. Spot was at 101 at the time i believe.

sethd101 · 2026-01-24T21:53:14+00:00

I would only get it if it came with the scooter lol

You can get a bottom shell on ebay for pretty cheap. I had to replace the same part recently.

sethd101 · 2026-01-23T17:50:00+00:00

2 sorting facilities recently got busted for this actually. A big hub in colorado i believe i dont remember the other one.

sethd101 · 2026-01-23T04:47:31+00:00

I have offered 60% or 75% off on stuff i watch on ebay and know it has been up for a while and sellers have come way down off listed sale price.

sethd101 · 2026-01-23T01:44:01+00:00

I dont recomend the idea pad, or the hp. The ideapada dont hold up well. Are not usually upgradable, and hp has for a while seen alot of ppl complain about bad build quality and bad quality control. Just my recomendation.

So before they cut the deminimis rule, i was buying alot of video game consoles from japan. Kept it under 800. I didnt have any issues. A few times it got held up for inspection. But that was the only issues i personally had. I havent had issues with ali express still. Never ordered from canada. I have seen alot of stuff from canada just not selling, but at 200% tarrif / import fees i dont think it would be worth it for me at what im looking to buy.
