Websites to buy $30 oem machines in Australia

[TunaBrother2-0]

I have been scowereing the internet for a place to buy some cheap PC's in my state ($50 and under) but all of the listings are 100-200 dollars.

If you guys have any websites ideas or overall anything that is cheap I would be happy to look through them

What are you trying to do with a $50 PC? At this price you'd be lucky to get a Core 2 Duo, especially if you're talking AUD instead of USD or something.

Again your best bet will be to look for someone getting rid of their old core 2 gaming system and that's it. Even if you do manage to find a core 2 duo oem you won't get it csgo capable for the little money you'd have left. Cs:go has gotten much harder to run and it's minimum specifications no longer accuratly reflect what it currently needs.

I need to find a place or website in Australia and preferably melbourne that sells cheap PC's so that me and my friends can play eSport titles.

I have to buy 3 PC's and 3 monitors and all the money I have is a measly $300au to get all of it.

Its a long shot, but you could try looking for computer recyclers, sometimes they can give away PCs that aren't considered worth the effort of re-selling.

Do these recyclers have websites and if so where can I find them because if I can get a couple for free that means I have more of a budget for other things

I'm not sure if you even have such a thing in AU, I just know we do (or did) in the UK so its worth looking around.

 

Its possible that everyone just flogs stuff on eBay now regardless of how low value it is, I haven't really looked into it recently.

Check out this Australian youtuber who is always on the grind. I can't guarantee it meets the $50 AUD margin, but he's down and dirty in the used Aussie market. 

 

I especially recommend his video series about being the "potato hunter." God low end pickins'.

Some food for thought!

If nothing else, it's a funny parts sourcing video. So it's a win win
