Does anyone know if there exists a place where I can get money for old pc parts? I have a few old mobo's, hard drives, disk drives, cases, wires, keyboards, mice, ect.

Yes did i forget to mention that i live in a small town. Until I was born they didn't even know what the word electronics meant.

Then sounds like the perfect place.

Build the parts into working PCs and sell them off for decent prizes.
Small town = not much choice = you charge more :P

I think that all depend on the parts themselves. I have been trying to sell old parts for several months. But no one wants to get them even for free ;)

You mean you were born with both a knowledge of electronics and the power of speech, wow! :lol:

Nah, if they're old try the 'vintage' section on ebay, I've sold a few bits through that section :)
