- Make sure the HDD is not physically damaged in any case. The reason being even if the HDD is in warranty you would not get RMA for a physically damaged HDD.
- While looking at the screenshots of the sellers HDD make sure you ask for HDD's picture from each and every angle. and look for any physical damage.

- HDD is a fragile item, so keep a good shipment in mind with your sale. You don't want to be end up being blamed for shipping kaput HDD. The buyer would understand.
- Pack it well guys, Pack it well. Wrapping it up in a piece of plastic paper will not do anything.. It has to be in a hard cardboard box.. and use a bigger box.. so that even if the item gets small wear and tear the HDD remains intact..
- Try and wipe the drive clean before sending the drive so that there is no chance of recovery of deleted files / sensitive information
