      I've seen this type of crap so much. People giving 1 star reviews for things which clearly specify what is in it, yet they still buy it anyway then write a scathing review about how it isn't as advertised, as if they've been incredibly wronged and they're not the asshat. It's your own fault for buying something with your hard earned money and not even doing a Google search.

    I always love it when they just say "SSD" without specifying which kind. There's a world of difference between a SATA SSD and an NVMe SSD. (Also, if it's an NVMe one, they should always tell the speeds, because they vary _a lot._ Some NVMe SSDs may have like 500 MB/s read speeds while others may have over 4000 MB/s.)

    In reference to the $4950 PC. I thought your reaction was a little over the top based on the parts the seller had listed, so I did some research. The listed parts for that PC would bring the total cost of the hardware to around $4000 (give or take $100 dollars for price fluctuations). Ebay takes 10% of the price paid ($495), the seller is offering free shipping (a minimum of $75 in the continental US on a PC). Credit card companies and Paypal are also going to charge the seller about 3% or more of the final total. That would mean that the seller is making around $235.
    Yes, it would be cheaper to buy the parts and build it yourself, and in most of the listings you evaluated today, I would agree with you on the on the prices. I just feel that you should have done the math on the listings instead of just going "reaction".
    I've built a ton of PC's in my life and I can honestly say that I wouldn't begin to work on one for someone other than friends or family for less than $150. I certainly wouldn't be willing to take a loss on parts because of ebay and paypal fees.
    With all that said, if someone has that kind of money to spend on a PC, and doesn't either want to, or have the time to build it themselves, they would be better off by going to one of the boutique builders like Falcon Northwest, Digital Storm, or Origin, and get the warranty and support that such a builder provides.

    4:34 As i have a NZXT S340 Black/Red case and when i built the PC, it was my first experience building one and then i did do the cable management almost spotlessly like i've been building PCs for a while... (Admittedly my back didn't look that apealing, but i redid the whole thing down the road... Was little little tricky because of non-modular PSU, but i did it wonderfully)

    Who came up with the term "pre-built" if you think about it pre-built means before it's built, "post-built" on the other hand means after it's built. So pre-built really means a bunch of computer parts which haven't been assembled to make a working computer yet, post-built means a bunch of computer parts that have been assembled to make a working computer.

    Man, I live in Detroit. You should see the Craigslist listings around here for prebuilts. There’s a Microcenter in Madison Heights (suburb like 10 miles away). I saw one the other day the guy was asking $5,300 for his “professionally built by an IT supervisor of 16 years” (it did look good), he listed the parts. I parted it out on Microcenter’s website, where he said he got it all a month prior, and screenshotted the cart total, which was $1,968. The only thing I couldn’t see and he didn’t list was the motherboard. I asked him if the motherboard cost several thousand dollars, and he asked why, and I told him that unless that was the case because it was made out of unobtanium and unicorn hair, I would offer him $1800 for it, and explained why. He told me don’t bother making an offer if I don’t know what I’m talking about.
    Pretty standard around here. And yeah, people buy them.
