Trading/selling computer... possible?

pirateerpirateer Member UncommonPosts: 219

I'm going to do a lot of traveling from now on, and I need to sell my desktop to buy a laptop. Or I could trade it in for a gaming laptop. It's an excellent computer, and I don't want to sell it online, or at a pawn shop (I don't feel comfortable). I live in the USA and bought the computer at Best Buy. I was wondering if a big corporation like Best Buy or Circuit City would buy my computer, or let me trade it in.

I bought it at Best Buy July 17th/18th 2007, so I don't know if they'll let me return it.



If online is the only way to sell it (other than pawning it), then I guess I'm out of luck...

Any help is much appreciated!

    My computer was about $1100, so I was trying to fetch a price of about ~$600-700 dollars, would they buy it for that much?
