i think your doing well man. to your "entry level" advice for some of us we are at entry level and seeing some of these people that are doing major daily builds gets a bit overwhelming. not sure if i can call out some major Canadian or Australian builders that can pull out a weekly build or faster. theres the regular guy that is just beginning to step into this thing thats fun and enjoyable. i guess in my own situation i flipped one pc (basically just a transplant to a Alienware case) then started the slow build to my personal rig thats kinda been stuck at flip or pull a complete overhaul. i digress but i find you relatable and your proof that its possible to do for regular guys in the hobby. youve come a long way since the first video i watched. keep it up man
I think your point about building around a single or few parts you already have is really important. Some of the better flips I've done have based around a deal or couple of deals I've managed to obtain as this gives you a base level of added value, and therefore potential profit, before you even start. Looking forward to the rest of the series!
Yeah, when I first started all of my projects started from a "base" deal that I built off of. Now I tend to just horde stuff and pull pieces for different builds I want to do at that time.
Just stumbled upon your videos. This is extremely informative for experienced and beginner builders. Great work! Also tell your four legged costar hi for us. :) The guest appearance of the tail at the beginning of the video made me chuckle.
subbed, this is good stuff ... i kinda slipped into flipping ... looking to expand and use my experience as a sysadmin to make this a decent side hustle ... your videos are certainly helping and inspiring!
love your content keep going! made a sweet deal yesterday 200€ for a gtx 1080 jetsream in combination with a ryzen 2600x for 75€ exited to build this baby !
Hey! I'm from the Philippines and PC building happens to be a hobby of mine which I pick up every few years due to wanting upgrades. I'm trying to contextualise your content to fit my country and it's been difficult. A question I do have is how do I know if I'm ready to do this? Should I start by learning lower end systems first and work my way up (especially since I got started when rx570 and GTX 1060 were big)? What are some prerequisite knowledge that I might need to know regarding PC parts? My knowledge as far as I'm aware is the midtier pricing range (500 - 800 USD builds). I'm slightly anxious since I'm still a student and putting some of my savings into this would definitely be a big risk for me. Great content though, glad I found your channel!
My recommendation for anyone who has reservations about starting, is to start with smaller, quicker investments. Things such as flipping singular parts that you get good deals on, or picking up people's older systems, cleaning them up and parting them out. I would first try to prove to yourself that you can do it, then you'll feel more confident and comfortable moving into full systems down the road.
@@twowheelsusedtech7628 Thank you! That's great advice. I've already started doing those singular flips actually, though like you mention in your series they do come quite rarely, unfortunately. That's why I started taking notice of flipping whole systems. I'll update you in the future! :) By the way, I think you should make a discord server. I'd be interested to interact with a community like yours there!
What are hidden and un hidden seller fees on ebay. Don’t big electronic stuff (pc)cost a lot to ship and also you have to pay ebay soemthing right and also the box for a pc that big probably costs a lot too right?
Hi I’ve been watching your videos and it really gave me the idea to try flipping PC’s (I’m 13 and I’ve successfully built 6 PC’s) because I’m 13 I can’t work, this bothers me because as a pc enthousiast and a gamer I can’t really expend what I have and build anything of it. I’ll tell you my progress if you are interested.
I got Rtx 3060Ti for 470€ Ryzen 5 2600x 90€ B450 Mainboard for 50€ What do you think can i make a profit with it? I'll use it to build a 720€ gaming pc. Ps: I m from Germany
well the problem with buying newer high end cards in your case the 3060ti is they're intended on high end flips ranging in the $1k range. From your price list, majority of the components aren't really killer deals as thats how much they probably go for on the used market. Most flips I do, require some pretty good finds to secure a good amount of profit. no one would pay retail for a used 2600x when 3000 and 5000 series is out, so with that 2600x you got, I'd say unless you're able to find someone to buy it or the rest of your components fairly cheap, then you're looking at what you built it for/ a small amount of profit. Then again, depends on the buyer and the area as well.
Really invested into this series, I've been flipping for a while but I'm sure there's a ton to learn! Awesome video.
Glad to hear it!
I reccomend using PCPARTPICKER instead of stuff like word, it made my life soooooo much easier...
You are insane! I remember when you just started and has nothing now your inventory is like a 3 double chests in minecraft
I'm going to measure everything in minecraft chests now :p

Great vid, looking forward to the rest of the series.
Here's to hoping I don't burn the office down before I finish them.

@@twowheelsusedtech7628 Yeah totally, as a side hustle I think looking for those deals is the best move :)
you are the best youtuber who actually gives advice and tips and not just build videos and testing parts only which helps a lot for beginners lol
That is exactly what I aim to provide, so glad to hear I'm hitting the mark!
@@twowheelsusedtech7628 lmao 10/10 best youtuber ive found in years

I'll make sure he gets the message. Always happy to hear my ramblings are useful.

Yeah I think most people kinda fall into flipping, that's how I got into it. Good luck and always happy to help!
Nice dog. I've got one of the same breed. Very loyal, intelligent, and goofy.
He's a pretty solid goober, keeps trying to get some TH-cam fans. :P

You and I are one. Do what you will with that knowledge.

It kinda sucks... If my build is higher than 550-650 it rarely sells.. I live in east tn so maybe it's just my location...

@UNES I'd love to hear of your progress!
THANK YOU
me peeping that sama space case in the back that was on sell on newegg for $50 abt a week ago, you already know i bought it too lol
Yeah, I find that when there is a solid deal on something all the PC flippers I know end up with it :p
@@twowheelsusedtech7628 yeah, unfortunately i wasn’t able to grab the major id cooling sale they had, seems you might have gotten some things though
@@enzee8423 Yeah, picked up two AIO's for $20 and 2 3-Pack of RGB fans for $20. Was a rather nice find.
@@twowheelsusedtech7628 yeah it was crazy man, tower coolers for $6 a piece, i missed the craze and when i found out it was too late
Thank you for the info
Any time!
What is the web sites name with the watts?
yes
Indeed
Just a question, is this your full time job??
I got a nice 500w psu
8GB ddr4
1TB hdd
and 750ti in a nice combo for 90 bucks lol I dont think the guy knew his stuff
Damn, not too shabby. Sometimes people just want to get rid of stuff without the hassle of learning all about it.
@@twowheelsusedtech7628 yeah, its always nice to find such deals. thats what makes flipping so fun
I got
Rtx 3060Ti for 470€
Ryzen 5 2600x 90€
B450 Mainboard for 50€
What do you think can i make a profit with it? I'll use it to build a 720€ gaming pc. Ps: I m from Germany

@@enzee8423 what do you think if I swap the RTX 3060 Ti for an RTX 2060.
@@lisudera5544 perhaps if you got it used, anything you buy new wont provide much profit except something of a “build fee”
