Ebay Hdd's

Post by **Claw** » Sat Apr 21, 2012 4:53 pm

I was just checking out some 1TB SATA drives in eBay and I found there are people selling dead drives. Clearly advertised as spares or repairs. Why would someone want to buy a dead drive? What's more, why would they want to spend at least a tenner, and postage on top of that?

Some people will buy anything.

perhaps some make warranty claims and get a new drive for peanuts, maybe someone will use two or three to make a good un. Perhaps they are good for clay pidgin shooting?
I can think of a couple of people i wouldn't mind giving a good battering, a hdd in a stocking would do them good.

Sold an old game boy on ebay a few years back, was helluva surprised it went for as much as it did.

sold a half used tub of Brill cream at a scout jumble sale once as well....
Bloke stood in front of me and slapped it on his head.
