When buying computers hardware -monitors, cpu's, videocards, you know the rest-.
Why I asked this:
Because we have a report on this. Kaso nga lang, my groupmates didn't even bother giving me their numbers. Sabik sa dismissal ang mga puchit.
Reason why I posted here:
Kasi, it may also help others when they are going buy their own PC's.
So that they don't feel scammed when they buy/sell a part by impulse.
Questions:
- When buying, do you go for the high performance, yet pricy and yet to be needed, or what you need now, lower performance but more affordable?
- When you sell parts, how do you price them? by age, performance?
Yan muna for now...
I forgot the rest of the questions eh.
Addon:
I found this site, but I still need actual response.

When buying hardware, I usually get a general idea of what I'm looking for, whether I'm going for a specific brand of a product or willing to get a generic one. Then through the magic of the thing called the Intarwebs, look around through <a href='http://www.villman.com/' target='_blank'>VillMan</a> and <a href='http://www.pcx.com.ph/' target='_blank'>PC Express</a>, and even <a href='http://tipidpc.com/' target='_blank'>TipidPC</a> to get a working budget for the stuff.
All in all, if I had the money I would probably go for the higher end stuff, even though I probably won't get to use it everyday. But if you're just looking to get performance for your money's worth, planning it all out is a very smart idea.
Selling, well, I've had little experience with selling computer parts, and those usually involved selling components that were at least 5-7 years older than current hardware. So that really means I sell 'em cheap, whatever they may be.
