So, pirates

So, pirates
I'm selling my Desktop. It has cracked Fruity Loops 8 and Photoshop CS5 on it, both of which are very pricy.
My stats are
2GB Ram
1250GB HDD (including external)

I'm looking to trade it for a laptop, if not a better computer.
I've found a few, but they're much better than mine.
But due to the value of having FL8 and PHotoshop on it, it makes it worth more to the user if it comes with those things.

So even though I torrented and cracked FL8 and Photoshop, should I mention that it's included (not that it's pirated) with the computer?

I would mention it, but I would scrub the hard drive and then restore to factory defaults in put them back on there if that's what you're going to do.
Also include the option to have to remove them ahead of time.

If you can get the student edition of a recent Office on then you could bill it as "the perfect system for an art student".

How would we trade you them?


i.e.: "I give you my computer and you give me yours"

It'd be better to sell on Craigslist. Less people there know about pirating. You'd make more cash. :)

Yeah I"m trading it to other people who are getting rid of theirs on craigslist.

He obviously wouldn't meet someone halfway across the world.

Are you sure it wouldn't be too risky to sell someone a computer with Pirated product on it?
