1.) Find a kit you want to buy 2.) Go buy it 3.) Change your mind and decide not to at the last moment 4.) You’ve just saved at least $500+ depending on the kit you were after 5.) Repeat until you save so much that money won’t be an issue anymore 6.) Now buy it with some of the money you’ve just saved (bonus tip: works for real estate as well)

I've got an extra 2x 16gb ddr4. I upgraded my motherboard last year and went ahead and bought 64gh ddr5 ram (I'm so happy I did before all this ). But the ddr4 32gb is still good. I was thinking of selling it but figured it wouldn't be worth the hassle. Now I'm thinking maybe I can get back what I paid for it. And it would still be a good deal for someone else. How can I make sure it's in 100% perfect working condition. ? I don't want to sell someone something that's going bad. Was working fine before, as far as I remember.

Hijacking a Best Buy truck seems like it would be faster if you're willing to overlook the illegality.
