Hi all

So i devoted the past 2 years of my life for learning advanced electronics repair, more precisely graphics cards repair, i have worked on my shop for the past 6 years repairing people's electronics, laptops, phones and other stuff...

I struggled with many people who just dont want to pay, i ended up working just to stay alive and eat food, so i switched to buying broken graphics cards and trying to repair, i started one year ago with the equivalent of $700....

my main sources are facebook and another popular market website on my country, i bought many and repaired few because most of the cards i found where from randome people, so i had to buy them expensive, and they were very hard to repair..

The only time i found a big lot of gpus was from a miner who wanted to sell his broken cards, i bought 500$ worth of broken cards from him, it was around 30 pieces, i was able to fix only 7 cards, and i am almost at Breakeven.

Now that i got almost all the necessary legal papers, tools and knowledge for my startup, i am still facing a problem...

No matter where i searched i still can't find people who happily wants to sell faulty graphics cards in bulk, i asked many other miners, most of them don't want to sell, i asked more then 80 shops including big shops that are selling high tech devices, i even asked many e-waste recycling companies that buy broken electronics, most of them dont want to sell, few of them just take my number and they never call...

What am i doing wrong here? Am i searching in the wrong places?
