Buying used PC parts in Iceland

Pósturaf kinmeiz » Mán 25. Nóv 2024 09:59

Hello everyone, I live in Iceland for a month now and I miss gaming. I would love to buy some used PC parts and build myself a PC. Searching the internet led me here but I wonder IF there is some more sites like this or If there is like a shop where I can go and look for some parts. Basically my question is where can I find biggest market of PC parts.
I hope this is the right cattegory for question.
I understand this is icelandic forum but I hope english will be no problem :)
Thanks for help

There are primarily three marketplaces where people here shop for used parts:

- Facebook groups like: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tolvur.raftaeki/
- Bland. Recently had a security issue but is frequently used: https://bland.is/solutorg/raftaeki/tolv ... d=35&sub=1
- Spjallid.is. You're on it right now.

This is the best place to hunt for good parts for sure. Geeks buying parts of other geeks. Facebook and bland is often over priced and generally dont know much about what they are selling.

I recently sold here i7 10700, z490 and cooler for 30k isk, was gone within a day. So keep checking everyday if you are hunting for parts.

Good luck.

edit; i have Lenovo C32q-20 32'' QHD IPS monitor not being used if you are interested. Budget screen. 75hz IPS.
