Where to Buy Old (Used) Computers.

This may not be the time to buy a new computer. It you just need to CHECK the NEWS  and your e-mail, old PCs are an economical way to add a second computer to your household.

This is a short list.  Not in  any order. These companies do a lot of business and should make some effort to protect their own future. You have to investigate.

These SITES sell other products, so you have to search for 'used desktop PC' and find what they offer.

Buy a PC with a new OS. No point in buying one with XP installed. WINDOWS 7 is a very good choice. And look for a warranty. Some come with a one year warranty.

Buying a used item as parts only is not a good idea. Unless  you are really very sure of yourself.

I would find a place place that repairs them and also sells used. You would have a better chance of finding one that WORKS well and a place of recourse if what you bought quits working.
