Craigslist.

 

You're better off selling it yourself. No shop is going to take it. Even if they do, they'll low ball you hard.

craigs list, any local used markets(physical or online like FB groups or forums) or ebay

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

If you do sell it via Craiglist or any other local classifieds means, take some tips from this video to stay safe. You don't know what kind of people you could be dealing with.

I wouldn't trust Craigslist as far as I could throw it. There's no "peace of mind" with CL. At least with eBay, you have some backup in case something goes wrong. eBay is the epicenter of selling junk fast. Someone out there will buy it.

 

As far as the computer goes...

Depending on the computer, you could always donate it. If it's higher end (gaming), you're probably better off selling it cheaper to someone who has always wanted a gaming PC, but doesn't have all that much by way of funds. It would be a great starter computer so they can learn the ropes and eventually build their own. Either way, you get rid of it faster.
