Ping: DougW (OT Computer Stuff)
Hey Doug, you're in the 'puter field aren't you?
I have some high end server and storage equipment (cisco, extreme, qualstar) that I know nothing about and have been asked to sell. I have the bill of sale for most of the equipment but I doubt the 3 yr old "Extreme Alpine Mid-Range High-Speed Backbone System" will fetch anywhere near the $40K new price. Do you know of any websites (besides eBay) that sells used equipment so I can get a rough idea of what this stuff is worth? -Brian |

Depreciation rate for computer stuff is about 20%-33%/year or your $40k is now about $20k http://www.genesisglobalinc.com/ (request a quote on-line) http://www.bizinetworks.com (you have to call for a quotes but they also buy used equipment) http://www.usedrouter.com has prices but mostly Cisco Third party reseller http://www.andovercg.com/ (no experience with them) But you know any third party sales is like taking a car to a used car lot. Your not going to get the $ from a personal sale. There is no one bellybutton for price data, mebby http://pricewatch.com ? The stuff we buy comes from http://gsaadvantage.gov and the used bits go to DRMO (government auction and recycling yard) Hope some of this helps. -- DougW |

Re: DougW (OT Computer Stuff)
Lot's of progress, it's facing the garage now instead of the street. I've
been inundated with other "projects" such as building my shed and... oh, that's it. I've been lazy/saving money for other stuff and busy finding excuses. The chilly weather has prompted my to get going on it soon though. I have to get it aligned so I can resolve a castor issue and put the interior back in. Some of the blame lays with this newsgroup. There should be more people like you shaming me into getting this project completed. Instead they go on with their fulfilled lives with no regard for my propensity to procrastinate. My insurance company is however thrilled my progress. It sits in the driveway with premiums paid up and little to no risk of accident or injury. -Brian "Billy Ray" <Billy_Ray@SPAMfuse.net> wrote in message news:b9be0$435bdfe6$4831b233$20241@FUSE.NET... > How is the Cherokee coming? > > -- > Billy_Ray@SPAM.fuse.net (remove SPAM) > 2002 Jeep WJ 4 Liter Automatic > Sharing is why we are all here....... or should be. > . > "Cherokee-Ltd" <nospam@home.com> wrote in message > news:zJednU6XttEUQMbeRVn-iA@rogers.com... >> Thanks Doug, great information.

There are a few specialty resellers that will take old or modestly old equipment and sell it used with a modest warranty and spare parts. Plus access to software upgrades, etc. They tend to offer less for used equipment than you can get on eBay. Worse, many of the better used equipment resellers now are on eBay and make it tougher for unknown individuals to sell there. My current and last company will allow us to buy on eBay, but are somewhat picky about who we do business with there, since you never know what sort of shape used equipment is in.... unless you know the business and that they are prepared to stand behind the more expensive stuff. Overstock.com is becoming in that direction. Sunstar is one place. Few folks would risk buying a big tape library due to the possibility of getting a "Friday machine" used unless they get it from a service or parts providing used equipment dealer. Ciscos and Extreme Networks are more eBay goods. |

My current and last company will allow us to buy on eBay, but are somewhat picky about who we do business with there, since you never know what sort of shape used equipment is in.... unless you know the business and that they are prepared to stand behind the more expensive stuff. Overstock.com is becoming in that direction. Sunstar is one place. Few folks would risk buying a big tape library due to the possibility of getting a "Friday machine" used unless they get it from a service or parts providing used equipment dealer. Ciscos and Extreme Networks are more eBay goods. |

Fortunately there are still a number of lingerie stores around for those last minute Valentines Day gifts. You're right about the really big ticket items on eBay. I have a Qualstar TLS 4480 (80)Tape Library for sale as well. Invoice on it was $36,250 + $10,000 for tapes (which I hope to format and include). I can't see too many people willing to click "buy it now" for this item. Shipping from Canada could get ugly too at 1000 lbs. I have some small Cisco items (PIX 515UR, Catalyst 2924 MXL) that will easily sell on eBay but I'm wondering if I should part out the Extreme 3808. Your opinion? -Brian |

Re: DougW (OT Computer Stuff)
No, even the mice find it too cramped in my garage;
I had to buy thin wall sockets and stubby wrenches to save room. I sanded two coats of paint off the walls to make it wider. I keep my 1/2" extensions in the kitchen cutlery drawer between the forks and spoons. I keep bundles of steel wool in my underwear drawer (big mistake). I switched from .030" to .025" mig wire for more elbow room. I tossed my c-clamps and use micrometers for measuring and clamping. I cut a fifty foot "S" shaped groove in the floor to store my extension cord. I reverse the polarity on my elec. lawnmower to double as a shop vac. I modified my extension ladder for storage, I now have 24 one foot ladders. On the plus side, with so much clutter it only takes 7 seconds and a wooden match to heat up the garage. -Brian "Billy Ray" <Billy_Ray@SPAMfuse.net> wrote in message news:9dfc9$435c6649$4831b233$26705@FUSE.NET... > Is there any room available in the garage (for cold weather work?) > |
