    Hi, first off this isn't a thread hawking stuff I'm selling so spare me the banhammer!

    I was dismantling my PC the other day as I'm selling off most of the components and putting the cash towards a new build. I'm not a novice by any stretch but this is the first time I've done a complete build on my lonesome apart from installing certain compenents. A few questions:

    - The motherboard mounting screws and risers. Are they included with the motherboard usually or the case? When I'm selling them I don't want to leave someone in the lurch.

    - Tha HDD and optical drive caddies. Again keep them with their respective devices or sell them with the case?

    - I've lost a lot of faith in eBay as they seem to unfairly side with the buyer in a lot of dispute cases and they take too much commission. I'm sure most of you lads have bought/sold stuff on adverts.ie. Would you recommend it?

    The screws, risers and caddies go with the case.
    I only ever buy/sell stuff on adverts. I find it very useful and have never had any issues on it.
