Computers and Internet Auctions: A Good Relationship

This past week, we were asked to find several working and usable computers for a hypothetical business. I was surprised at the ease and selection available at a person's fingertips. For the assignment, we used eBay and Kijiji to find computers in Canada and also in the Lower Mainland area. To narrow the search in eBay, use the advanced search feature to limit the search parameters. Also to narrow the search even further, put a minus sign to exclude the number of ads which are containing a certain word, and when the searcher put a addition sign and a certain word, it will increase the number of results which contain that word. I sure hope that this has been helpful and happy shopping and computing!
