What do you think about this

Buying audio equipment, and making boxes and piecing things together for the idiots out there, and selling 'complete systems' on craigslist.

Does anyone do this? Is there much demand for this?

I was also thinking about doing this, but I really don't wanna get involved in installing systems for people for multiple reasons and I feel like most of the people who bought stuff from me would want it hooked up too.

Send 'em to a pawn shop or swap shop or flea market and let them install it for $50 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif.

No I wouldnt want to hook it up. Just sell the stuff. There are other people to do that.

But does anyone think there is any profit margin here at all? Or would we loose money?

its possibly ive done it, but u will get a sh** load of scammer emails saying they will mail u a check then come pick it up after u send money to the courrier yada yada yadda. And lowballers out the a$$ who dont know a good setup from a dik in their ***. its almost not worth it unless u just really enjoy building the equipment.

Selling items together is always more risky, simply due to the fact that people are going to have to want all the items you're selling, not just the pieces. And if you're not offering any value-added services (like installation or tuning), where's the savings over them piecing it together themselves?

craigslist is full of low ballers who think just becuase they can get a sony 2000 watt amp for 50 dollars that they offer ridiculous low amounts. oh and they always have stuff to trade.

People love buying "packages"

Might not be worth the trouble.. People on craigslist can be annoying as hell..
