Selling Refurbished Laptop Online

Hello, 

I have been making websites for others since 3 years and now I am also working as a digital marketer. 

I have been thinking of a E-commerce store to where people can buy Refurbished laptops and sell us their old laptops. 

Acquiring Laptop:

1) From Original Manufacturer

2) From Local dealers

3) End Users

Selling:

Starting from NCR.

We refurbish and resale with warranty.

Give COD or online payment gateway. 

After sales:

Making Contract with local vendors who provide onsite hardware support. 

The part that we cannot sale:

Return to vendor at some loss. 

Why I think this might work:

1) Price matters: cheap laptops, with onsite warranty. 

2) Lot of institutes start and shutdown, small schools, offices- all need laptops

What I fear:

1) Rapidly changing technology: old laptops are not supported by new softwares, motherboards, rams, optical drives, processors and vice versa. 

2) Buying laptop from end users even after getting it checked by a tech is risky. 

3) No idea about how much stock I should maintain. Laptops are expensive and if they do not sell and if vendors do not take it back then I might end up playing Frisbee with them. 

I would really appreciate inputs by TRH members. Thanks in advance.
