I knew that I might be able to find some spare parts at the swap meet so I set out for the three hour drive on that Saturday morning. I would have never guessed that in addition to the spare parts for poweredge servers that I found, I also got six used servers that were in excellent condition.

I know that people usually deal in car parts at swap meets but it was becoming more and more common to find computer parts and such at them too. I had only had luck with swap meets a few times before and since I was not really doing anything, decided to set out for this one and it paid off.

I own four different computer shops and we repair many items for our customers. We also sell used computer pieces like used servers, desktops, laptops and routers. I knew that with a little work and cleaning up the used poweredge servers could be worth a lot of money at one of my shops.

I made a great deal with the guy was selling them and drove back home to start the refurbishing process on the used servers so that I could recoup my money on them and a few thousand more.
