New ones, of course. Other than that, I don't think any of them are easy to sell, especially since they become technically obsolete so quickly.
Look at ads sometime, such as microcenter mailers. You can get off lease commercial Dell computers that are 3 years old for a few hundred, some as low as 199.
I've been without a desktop for years, but came to realize that I almost never carry my laptop out, so I started to look at the desktop market. Here is an article: Your Next Computer Should Be a Desktop - WSJ
I think laymen who buy used desktops just want it cheap and don't care much about performance. They search for used PCs using the price range primarily. Computer geeks are interested in high end PCs, but those who build their own also may look for old, low end ones which they can either upgrade or use the parts from them.
can't view the article because I don't subscribe to the WSJ, but I disagree with the headline, which seems to advocate desktops and powerful laptops. Maybe WSJ readers do a lot of heavy processing, but most people don't. A cheap laptop would be fine.
I'm a power user - have a fast desktop for photo and video editing. I rarely use it. I have a lower powered notebook, and use it all the time.
