Would you buy a Gaming PC on Craigslist?

I have been building solid gaming computers for years for myself, friends, and family. Not everyone knows how or wants to deal with the hassle of building a PC. My question to you is whether or not you'd buy one off of Craigslist.

The buyer would be able to come over and thoroughly test and benchmark the machine they are interested in. The PC would come with a Retail version of windows. As well as manufacturer warranties for each PC part. They would be paying for parts and a small build fee or labor fee.

I also have my own website I'm working on, it isn't done yet but it should help with sales because they'll see a professional site unlike most sellers on Craigslist.

    There is a flaw in your business plan- If someone didnt want to build or have the know how then they would probably want support and warranty from the builder, not the manufacturer's. They may not either have the knowhow to identify the cause of the problem or to arrange warranty return to the manufacturer.
