Buying and selling computer parts. I know it doesn't sound childish but I don't really make much, it's like 0.01 percent of my salary I get paid as a software developer.
Random people call me, I meet them, they buy some random PC parts and it just feels nice.
Are the customers polite most of the time? Any nasty encounters? (Blaming for defects, running away without paying)
I have sold hundreds of PC parts for about 2 years. Customers are polite all the time, I know it is unexpected but that's how it is, I have never had any nasty encounters.
I had fears about them running away, but this also never happened. Regarding defects, there was few occasions where the next day they called me and asked for replacement. Usually I sell SSDs, so out of about 100 of them I got back 5. when I retested them 2 of them was working and I sold them again :D 3 dead SSDs are laying on the shelf, not sure what to do with them...
