dazza007 Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 Hi Does anyone have any recommendations on companies that purchase used IT equipment? I found a company called techbuyer who offer to purchase used IT servers if anyone has used them a recommendation would be great! Regards, Darren
Dos_Box Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 I do have to ask, how old are they and what spec, as that may be a factor in getting a company to take them off your hands.
Wave9_Lee Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 Hi Does anyone have any recommendations on companies that purchase used IT equipment? I found a company called techbuyer who offer to purchase used IT servers if anyone has used them a recommendation would be great! Regards, Darren If you've found someone, just give them a call - it's you selling, not buying, so nothing to be worried about. You can check them out on companies house if you're worried about getting paid. Also quantity will be important, many companies wouldn't be interested in small quantities - ebay might be a better bet for a handful of kit. imo
willtech Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 Bargain hardware https://www.bargainhardware.co.uk/sell-used-hardware ICT Direct are part of the same company. Purchased off ICT direct without issues not sold to them but might be an option for you.

Achandler Posted November 6, 2020 Posted November 6, 2020 Techbuyer are fine to deal with, I've purchased from them before. Based up near Harrogate I believe, always found them helpful and responsive.
jimmy_2k Posted November 6, 2020 Posted November 6, 2020 just make sure that they're going to wipe any data or remove any drives :-)
dazza007 Posted December 7, 2020 Author Posted December 7, 2020 So got a quote today from techbuyer - £500 for 4 dl365p gen8 with 900Gb SAS disk and 160Gb RAM with fibre card that is £125 each!!!!!! And a lefthand unit 2TBx12 - £50!!!!!! Bargain hardware were not interested.
Jcx500 Posted December 7, 2020 Posted December 7, 2020 (edited) I Would post them on ebay or somewhere like that Edit: We got a refurb server from these the other week, i think they buy used ones too, www.etb-tech.com Edited December 7, 2020 by Jcx500
