Hey, Buddy! Come here. Have I got a deal for you!

If you saw this guy selling laptop and computer parts on the street you'd probably turn and run the other way, but on the Internet it's hard to tell the good guys from the bad and it's hard to tell the good computer deals from the bad ones, too.

It gets even more confusing because most people believe that if a deal sounds too good to be true, it can't be true. But on the Internet you really can find cheap computer parts from legitimate sellers and save 30%, 50%, to 80% or more off retail prices.

I know it sounds crazy, but these low prices begin with the original computer manufacturer and are passed on to the secondary market
(computer outlets, authorized resellers, wholesalers, brokers, etc.)

Of course, there is a wild and wonderful reason computer manufacturers literally dump new or like new laptop and computer parts into the secondary computer market. Their deeply discounted computer parts may be demos, end-of-life models, customer returns or over stocks. A lot of the items are brand new and sealed in the original manufacture's packaging, but these computer parts can't be sold as new, even if they are, if they have been returned to the factory. It's simply against the law for a computer manufacturer to sell returned items as new.
