Best place to find used computer parts in EU?

Mortis Angelus

Hello,

 

what is the best place to buy used PC-parts in EU? Ebay is a really piss-poor place to buy from here, as most sellers try to scam the buyers with superbly over priced products. Is there any alternative?

 

I am looking for a Lian-Li PC-O6S-case for "a bit" cheaper than the MSRP.

I think your best bet is to find a hardware site/forum in your own language.

What? Do you even know what the EU is? A lot of people have English as either their primary or secondary language

Fine, a hardware forum with origins in your own country.

When I'm scavanging for used parts I use a Danish hardware forum.

Problem is, as you probably know, living in Denmark, is that the market is so limited here. Thus it would be better to be able to search the entire EU for parts, not being restricted to one country. I mainly search Finland and Sweden, but that is still very limited.

I can usually find a buyer or seller well enough in Denmark. I suppose Finland may be a little more challenging because things are spread out a bit more. Copenhagen to Århus is a bit shorter than Helsinki to Oulu.

 

But I think the main problem is you're looking for a single niche case.
