Hello there, I am from Surrey, BC and I have a gaming PC that I assembled myself. But due to some personal issues I had to move back to India permanently and I couldn't sell the PC myself or take it with me. I have tried to sell it remotely but it has never worked. So I need some guidance on should I ship it to India in parts and which parts should I sell, or should I just sell it all together. If you have any ideas please help me and if someone is willing to buy it from me I will be happy to sell. I am open to offers.

Here are the specifications of the PC:-

 

- AMD Ryzen 5 7600X

- GIGABYTE B650 AORUS ELITE AX AM5

- CORSAIR Vengeance 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5 6000MHz CL36

- Zotac RTX 3070 Ti Trinity 8GB

- 1TB SN770 SSD

- 500GB SN550 SSD

- NZXT Kraken X63 AIO

- Corsair RM 850 PSU

- NZXT 510i Case

- 2x Corsair ML120 fans

- Vertical GPU mount

 

Also there are other peripherals too. I don't know which parts are better to ship or to sell.

Decent computer for sure, it'd sell quickly if you price it low. I'm not sure what prices are like in India, so it's hard to say if shipping it back home would be worth it. I'm sure you'd be looking at several hundred dollars if not close to a thousand dollars to get all of that shipped in a (or several) properly packaged boxes.

 

If you throw it up on Facebook Marketplace I'm sure there'd be some interest, though we're entering a harder season to sell a PC.

 

If you wanted to keep it, personally I'd sell the monitor, case and PSU, put the rest of the internals into a box and ship that home.

Bhai, honestly mat kar import. Its a bloody mess with customs. If you get full PC then likely they might not charge customs on it, but partwise, expect to pay min. 50% of price of each part. Best option is to sell it in Canada, or try to get the pc as a whole imported(no pc company boxes, else they might get sus and levy customs duty)

If that's the case, pull the hard drives and take that in a box, and sell the rest as a "computer, no HDD/SDD/OS".

 

Generally the build is good enough that it could be sold quickly. The reason you wan to take the SSD's is so your private information isn't undeleted/recovered from the drives after it's sold.

That is a good option, I will work on it.

As I am not in Canada presently, I have very little to no idea about the market prices and conditions to sell it on the marketplace. So can you guys suggest to me a realistic cost of this PC to it will sell? Keeping in mind that I will remove the SSDs as suggested, CPU/MOBO/RAM were bought in June 2023, and the GPU and other parts are 2022 old.
