Two similar-looking laptops can fetch very different prices. Here is how the buyout price of used equipment is formed.

Key factors

  • Model and year - business lines hold value best.
  • Configuration - CPU, RAM, SSD; for servers, CPUs, drives and PSUs.
  • Condition - faulty units still have component value.
  • Completeness - chargers, caddies, cartridges.
  • Lot size - uniform lots get better unit prices.
  • Page count for printers and MFPs.
  • Market demand and exchange rates.

How to get the best price

Send a detailed list with models, configurations and photos, sell as a lot, and do not disassemble equipment yourself.
