So, to start this may be a lengthy post so I apologize. Anyway, I have been looking at gaming pc's that are on craigslist, and some of them look pretty sweet. Having only a faint knowledge of computer internals, I would like some extra info about the builds that I will give you links to later in this post. However, my first question is, has anyone ever bought a PC from a site like craigslist or Ebay or something like that. Most of the posters said they would be willing to boot it up and show that it runs and everything, and one guy even has a warranty.

Anyways, I'll give you guys the links to the posts and please just write back saying which one you think is the best, or if they are all terrible. Basically just rate them for me. Thanks guys. Here are the links;

Rig #1- [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Rig #2- [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Rig #3- [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Rig #4- [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Rig #5- [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

I could post a bunch more but I know you guys value your time so I won't. If you could please just give me some feedback on each one it would help me out so much. Thanks.

The first one is great. 100% worth $900 and I wouldn't even consider the other ones.

Only thing with the first one is little storage.
First one is better then the rest, might need another HDD (could pickup internal 1TB for ~60$).
Other then that yeah.

The first one seems almost too good to be true. Make sure you test it before purchasing.

Considering the fact that there is a build log on OCN and the guy very clearly knows what he's doing, I'd say he's the most trustworthy seller. People like that on OCN know what they're doing and $900 is perfectly reasonable. I'd have put it at $1000. Since you're dealing in-person, there's no real risk.
