You are absolutely right about everything. I think I understand better where you are coming from.
I agree that no one should ever trust anyone claiming brand new (unopened) and therefore you should always verify all documentation, and check everything yourself.
But that’s trust, and it is irrelevant to the second concern, which is what is second-hand and what is brand new. Second-hand implies it’s been owned by someone, there is no question about the meaning. This system was never owned by anyone and is straight from an official retailer (never unboxed), it was simply customised and built according to a specification by one of our client. The box has simply been delivered to our offices, left in our warehouse and is being re-sold by us. Re-sold does not mean that suddenly the parts are second-hand. It’s packaged officialy, just like Amazon (in your example). The only issue here (which I agree with you) is trust, and I believe I have enough documentation for anyone interested to prove this, and they are more than welcome to make their own judgement.
I hope this clarifies my initial post a bit more. No parts are being sold, but a ready to use system from a well respected retailer in the UK.

Thanks for your feedback. I think you missed a few things my post.
The RRP price is $12,000 of all parts (it is only an indicator of brand new item price), the actual asking price is $8,500.
That’s 30% cheaper than buying brand new parts and building it in your own time.
It’s a pretty damn good price if you ask me.
To clarify - Not second hand also. I mentioned already all parts are completely brand new and the system was built by professionals and never used. There is a lot of paperwork, receipts and documentaton that can easily prove this. This means all official cables are still unpackaged and there’s an official warranty for 3 years on all parts, same as if you would have bought all parts (or a complete system) brand new.
In other words, it is no different if you buy it from me or if you buy it brand new in any retailer. All the paperwork, warranty, cables are officially wrapped. Not re-wrapped, not refurbished, but brand new with all the supporting docs.
I know this may be hard to believe but if anyone is genuinely interested then I will be happy to show the documentation.
Everything that comes out of the shop and being re-sold out of the shop is "second hand".The RRP price is $12,000 of all parts (it is only an indicator of brand new item price), the actual asking price is $8,500.

If its already out of the box its second hand
Even if it was brand new in box you can't sell it at the same price like amazon sells it for.
Why ? Because people will prefer amazon than unknown seller over internet in first part
I never said the machine is not good, its more than awesome, but yeah there is difference between buying it from you or any shop.
There is always difference when you trust unknown person over internet no matter how good he is, and buying it from well known shop like amazon or any local we can trust.
Just friendly advice
Double check your price and shops prices Because your -30% based on xe.com exchange if we count the prices in gbp and usd, you are selling at the same retail amazon price even when you doing -30%
(Those -30% difference coming from the GBP to USD exchange anyway for brand new parts) November 08, 2018, 07:18:25 PM

Awesome work station but its second hand..
That's nothing bad to sell second hand we all do it!
But not with prices more expensive than the new parts
Your Processor actually worth $1,979.00 brand new... -> https://www.amazon.com/Intel-Core-i9-7980XE-Processors-BX80673I97980X/dp/B075XRYMDR/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1541720682&sr=8-3&keywords=Intel+Core+i9-7980XE
I'm pretty sure you will never ever get that price for second hand processor
Also...
You didn't say which exactly the 1080ti's are but here on forum there is couple people selling them from 450$ to 700 eur which is way way below 659 punds.
Your ram...
It is brand new 1619$ -> https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Vengeance-8x16GB-3800MHz-Desktop/dp/B074FTTZD1/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1541720832&sr=8-1&keywords=CORSAIR+VENGEANCE+RGB+128GB
And you asking 1,734.99 punds? That's like 2,266.54$ for second hand ram that people can buy for 1619 brand new...
Actually i don't want to continue with this.
This machine is awesome, but your price is awful..
Please check the prices again and fix yours
With second hand prices if you like to receive any real offers
Wish you best of luck for your sale.

A one-of-a-kind professional workstation for extreme enthusiasts or anyone needing a ton of raw processing power.
This system contains the most high-end parts available on market as of 2018 (except RTX cards), and comes with a significant price tag.
Total RRP of all parts (parts listed below) is £9,008 ($12,000). I am flexible with arranging a viewing, accepting crypto/cash, sending photos, secure shipping, or being with you if you are collecting.
I will sell for £6,500 ($8,500) but will take highest offer. All parts are completely brand new, with all original cables, system is pre-built and ready to use.
3 year official warranty included.
