The best in electronics can be found at estate sales. You can find computers, televisions, and Blu-Ray players for half the price. The best way to find these good deals is to search for name brands like Samsung, Sony, Bose, etc. This will ensure the reliability of the products as well as be able to be fixed if need be, at many different locations.

Things you should look for to make sure that you are making a good purchase:
- Is there a lot of wear from use on the product?
- Are there any scratches on screen fronts? Dents?
- Are all the pieces of the item present?
- PLUG IT IN, to make sure it turns on and the colors and screen are in good viewing condition.
Another way to understand exactly what you are buying would be to do a little research on an item that you are looking to buy. This will avoid any confusion when you inquire about key features it may have, etc. It is always nice to have a manual or guide book to help you operate the electronic, so be aware and ask if it will be included. This is just like any other major purchase, so ask a lot of questions!
