Tips on how to sell a vintage PC featuring my personal custom Windows XP P4 gamine PC

I genuinely hate selling computers, but it is WELL past the time for me to get rid of some of these. I'm going to start with my own personal custom Windows XP machine that I built for my own enjoyment. I will be listing this PC on eBay a day or so after this video goes live, and will report back on how it goes, hopefully as a side note in the next video! Speaking of, we've got a VERY special video coming up, and although I was able to keep this one under 30 minutes, I don't think I'll be as successful on this next one. Cheers!

Hello there ! (I had to do it since you've played Battlefront 2 :P) I agree with 99% of what you said throughout the video but I have a question considering the games you don't want to install: do authorities really bother ? Since it's a used machine I mean, they must have better things to do than harassing a simple folk that flips PCs occasionaly lol
I don't know a lot how the situation is in the US (competition between sellers etc.) but I hope you'll be able to sell that rig for at least the price you mentioned considering the work you put into it, and that custom case btw, simply rad ! I know how much time it can consume:
Here in my country I'm more specialized in refurbishing old laptops and installing/configuring 98 (& DOS sometimes) on them (I hoarded a lot through the years and want others to enjoy them. I'm also more interested in desktop parts so that money goes most of the time into rare cards I don't own still, or other hobbies. I'm not seeking to get rich through this activity lol) which is a CHORE with especially with all the different drivers between modems, LAN cards, sound cards etc. (btw there's no SDI in 98 AFAIK), like it can take an entire evening to configure and test one properly.
I found building an XP rig to be so much easier (thanks SDI, broad compatibility etc.) but here people don't want to pay the right price for the amount of work put into it. Even ~100€ seems outrageous to some potential buyers here while selling a worse specced 98 machine that won't access many great XP-era games is far easier. The clientele for these machines seems to be 40-50 year-old so people who are earning the most $$$ while still working / not retired and mostly not much interested in XP-era games considering they were not young enough to feel any nostalgy, but that's just a guess !
Maybe in a few years these XP machines I have gathered will become more appreciated by younger (& older) people. Ecologically speaking I'm really not keen on trashing perfectly working but "obsolete" PCs...

@@kami4542 The truth is the authorities don't really care If you "forget" to uninstall games before you sell the PC. However, they DO care if you advertise the fact that you're going to do that. It all comes down to image and reach in the end, If it looks like I'm promoting piracy on TH-cam, then I will definitely get a letter in the mail about it and the video could get taken down. As far as selling the individual components of a PC, it's usually a lot more profitable to do that. However, as the prices of these individual parts increase, people selling these parts for profit can end up being accidental gatekeepers to the hobby. I know a lot of people who are interested in getting into vintage PCS, but simply don't have the money to go out and purchase the things they want. For example, I got lucky when I found my Voodoo Banshee in a trash computer, there's no way I could have afforded any 3dfx card just by going on eBay and buying them. Hell, most voodoo cards sell for more than I paid for my car lol
