Topic: WTS 20 full systems Acer Predator G3-710 (including monitors) (Read 818 times)

I am locking the topic due to lack of interest for the remaining systems. However, if anybody finds this topic at a later date and is interested, s/he may PM me and ask if the respective systems are still available.

There are only 3 systems left (monitors included). All the keyboards are sold. This is just an update regarding the available stock. OP is updated accordingly. Systems' prices remain the same from the last update, meaning 730$ for a PC and a monitor.

Lol?! No, thank you...

Will you exchange ONE system for Antminer S9 13.5T (perfect Working Condition)

I am offering now a Christmas special discount! The new price of a PC (monitor included) is now only 730$ (from 780$). The price of a keyboard is lowered as well, from 25$ to 20$. Maybe the new prices will atrract some customers.

Thanks again for the heads-up jonsi!

As a first move, I'm lowering the prices to 925$ for the systems and 30$ for the mechanical keyboards. OP is updated accordingly. If I will still have no offers, I'll reduce the prices even more in a few days.

It is out of stock. correct. It was just for the purpose of a price represetation, so if somebody want this particular sistem, it would not be able to purchase it from Auchan.
It is also true that it doesn't have a monitor.

@OP: Good luck with your sale.

Indeed, this is the same model I mentioned in OP. Thank you for that link, jonsi, I was not aware of it. Currently, in Romania there is a period when many shops run a sort of extended Black Friday campaign. Here, Black Friday doesn't last just a Friday, but almost the entire month, as many shops want to sell as much as possible of their products.

I believe what you found is a special offer for this period but, nevertheless, the price is real, I confirm. As a consequence, it is time to lower also the prices from OP.

Thanks again for pointing this out. I'll think soon about the new prices.

But be aware, that the system you pointed out is currently out of stock and also without monitor.

This exact product is sold brand new by Auchan with $733.51.

Lol, now everything makes sense. You are a reseller looking to buy PCs as cheap as possible for you to build profit and you are trying to convince any seller that his price is too expensive. OK, that being cleared out, we can stop the discussion here.


Yep, it's correct what you said about the VAT, philipma, thank you for joining the conversation and for clearing thing out. Not for the reseller quoted above, as he isn't interested about that anyway and he is looking just to buy as cheap as possible for reselling as expensive as possible. But your input may be useful for other forum users which may not know this difference.

Stop fighting with each other if a buyer wants them he will buy them.

I can tell any buyer here know your prices.

 I can tell any seller here know your prices.

These pcs are over priced for USA but for europe there is vat tax.

do your research if you sell or buy.

Thanks for your reply!
As seller of those machines i didn't expect any other answer.
We are not amateur in computers at all, actually we build high tech gaming computers for many company.
Those parts are really out dated abut not a bad ones.
With or without your doubts, we have bought and re-sell many machines like that for less.
Yes we do know that's a "Brand" machines which in many cases makes them even worse than self made ones part by part.
99.99% of all brands assemble their machines by encapsulated their PSU's which do not let users to Upgrade it.
In many and most cases same "Brand" computers are using bad BIOS and chipset.
Everyone who did mistake to buy computer by "Brand" know what i am saying.
This computer at acer website can cost even 10k but in real life without the brand it is not even close to 1k.
The last machine we bought so far under 1k had 8700k with 32gb of ddr4 3200 ram.
I find your answer really good but it had nothing to do with the current computer market.
Do not compare computers with car models like Mercedes....
That's not wine, computers not going more expensive with their age.
And the Mercedes offers you comfort and design not only outside but inside also.
The only design here is the custom made Case with encapsulated PSU and many other things that do not let users to upgrade their computer in future.
Wish you best of luck in your sales!

I'm not offended, but it's clear that the question was asked by an amateur in computers. But I'll explain though, in case others have the same question.


First of all, I doubt that you'd be able to find all the computer pieces at less than 500$ second hand. Can you try to look for all parts and show us the sites where you found them second hand and prove you managed to find them at 500$? They cost more than 500$, no doubt about that. Besides the price, which is not 500$, you would also have to spend time to assemble them together in a functional PC. This means time spent.

Second of all, forgetting that you won't find all those pieces at 500$, there is another aspect:


This means to dot the i. Because this aspect is very important. This PC is a brand PC, not a no-name PC, constructed piece by piece. And it's brand gives the price. As German use to say, "there are Mercedeses and then there are cars", if you get the subtle message. A brand product would cost more than a regular product or than a product made by a company which has a brand of a lower value. For example, think about iPhones vs Huawei phones or vs Samsung Galaxy phones. iPhones always cost more because they're made by Apple, although they are behind Huawei and Samsung with the technology (they have lower CPUs for their phones, cameras with less megapixels and so on). But, in the end, an iPhone costs that much because it's an iPhone, not for the value of its pieces.

The same applies for brand PCs. That "Acer Predator" logo gives value to the product. If you want a regular PC, constructed by you piece by piece, feel free to buy one, wither new or second hand. If you want a fully built PC from a store, which is cheaper than a brand PC, again: feel free to buy it. But if you want a brand PC, then you'll also have to pay for the brand.


Yes, these systems I'm selling are second hand. And this is why I'm selling them that low. Did you check the link from OP with a brand new similar system posted on Acer's website? Let me quote it for you here: https://www.acer.com/ac/en/NZ/content/predator-model/DG.E04SA.005?fbclid=IwAR1Iui7QxTtzPxOfRTCooY_oOJtzko_U30uqzWdfzFOjvt5MSwrbrZ1hwRA

That PC, bought from Acer, costs 3999$. I'm asking for 1000$, which means 25% of the price of the new computer. Oh, not to mention that in the 25% I included also an Acer Predator monitor. Is 25% from the brand-new product's price too much to ask? Usually at what percentage do you sell your second hand equipment? 1-2% perhaps? Mind me, but if it is so, please let me know each time you're selling something.

And yes, that PC has a slightly better configuration than the one I'm selling, but the difference between them will never justify the 3999$ price asked by Acer. To be more precise, as I stated also in OP, my systems have i5-7400 and Nvidia 1060, while the PCs sold by Acer have i7-7700 and Nvidia 1070. The difference between those parts is small (around 200$ most likely).

So, in conclusion, why don't you ask also Acer why they want 3999$ for a PC which can be bough even new at 1500$? I think you realize that the pieces inside the computer sold by Acer don't cost more than 1500-2000$, right? Then, based on your logic, Acer is ripping people off, right? You should make a complaint to them as well. Also to Apple. Also to Mercedes... What do you say? Why would you pay 30.000$ for a Mercedes, when you can buy another car with only 10.000$ And that car would have also 4 wheels, 4 doors, windows, windshield and so on...

In conclusion: if you had no idea about what means a brand and what's its impact on a product's price, I hope you'll learn now.

Sorry to disturb you with my post and if it offend you feel free to delete it.
But you can find that kind of configuration without the "Acer Predator" logo for less than 500$ second hand.
No matter was the machines used or no, soon as they leave the store, they are "second hand".
Sadly, computers are not like the wine, they do not go any more expensive with the age, actually the prices go lower.
Wish you best of luck with the sale!

Update (10.11.2020): unfortunately, I can not include shipping anymore in product's price, therefore the customer has to pay for the shipping. However, take into consideration that I lowered the price substantially, from 1150€ to 1000$. Of course, if we talk about the aquisition of several systems, we can negociate something about shipping cost.

Update (06.11.2020): computers' price was reduced from 1000 euros to 1000 USD. Available supply was also updated, for both computers and keyboards.

I am selling 20 18 15 3 PCs Acer Predator G3-710 (monitors included). The systems are in perfect shape. If you want to buy at least 5 pieces I can offer a discount. Mice / keyboards are not included. Free shipping in Europe. If you are outside Europe you'll have to pay also for the shipping. The price is 1150 1000 euros 1000$ 925$ 830$ 780$ 730$ per each system (in BTC). Shipping is not included in the product's price. Products do not have warranty. The price for a newer G3-710 generation is 3999$ so you do the math (https://www.acer.com/ac/en/NZ/content/predator-model/DG.E04SA.005?fbclid=IwAR1Iui7QxTtzPxOfRTCooY_oOJtzko_U30uqzWdfzFOjvt5MSwrbrZ1hwRA). The only difference between the two models is that the newer one has an i7 7700 CPU and a GTX 1070 video card, while the one sold by me have an i5 7400 CPU and GTX 1060 video card.
