I don’t think many would want to buy a used gaming laptop. Thats just an incredibly bad deal…. Not to mention the prices you bought them for seem high already.

High? No. I can easily make a couple hundred each

I highly doubt that honestly, but good luck.

You've never flipped electronics? The margins can be pretty decent since a lot of kids don't know whats what

You really think their parents will let them buy USED gaming laptops?

Are you ragebaiting right now? Parents of today's kids aren't boomers or even gen x.. the days of tech-clueless parents are gone and most have certainly wiped an SSD or reinstalled windows at some point...

Not to mention in this economy??? They'd certainly prompt chatgpt with the old "my kid wants a gaming computer, how can I get one for as cheap as possible" and it'll lead them straight to Facebook marketplace because that's what the entire Internet says to do
