Tested Components for Rhode Island Builders
New PC parts cost more than they should, and half the time you don't need new. PayMore's Providence area stores stock used computer components that have been tested and verified before they go on the shelf, so you can build or upgrade for a fraction of retail. Students at Brown, RISD, and Johnson & Wales, weekend builders in Cranston and Warwick, and small shops around the East Side all come through looking for the same thing: a part that works, at a price that makes sense. That's what we stock.
Hey Providence!
Get quality computer parts for great prices.
Our inventory rotates constantly, and everything on the shelf is in verified working condition:
Stock changes week to week since it comes from what people bring in. If you're hunting something specific, call ahead or stop by — inventory moves fast.
Real stores, real people, zero sketchy parking lots.
Providence's safe, convenient, and eco-friendly choice for selling, trading and buying used electronics.
Bring your components and a valid government-issued photo ID. Original boxes and accessories help, but loose parts are fine.
We bench-test each component to confirm it works and check its condition, then price it against current market demand.
Accept the offer and take cash, or put the value toward parts you actually need. Plenty of customers trade a whole generation of old components straight into an upgrade. for your parts right away.

Everything Gets Tested First: No part reaches our shelf without being powered up and verified. GPUs get benched, RAM gets tested, drives get checked for health. We don't sell mystery hardware.
Honest Condition Reports: If a card has a loud fan, a case has a scuffed panel, or a drive has hours on it, we say so before you buy. You should know exactly what you're getting.
Staff Who Build Too: Our team assembles systems themselves, so they can tell you whether that CPU works with that motherboard, whether your power supply has the headroom, and where your build will bottleneck.
Prices That Fit Rhode Island: We price for the local market — students, hobbyists, and families — not for whatever the current retail markup happens to be.
Skip the Shipping Gamble: Buying used parts online means waiting a week to find out whether a GPU works. Here you can see it, ask about it, and bring it home the
same afternoon.
Do you test everything you sell?
Yes. Every component is tested and verified working before it goes out on the floor.
What if a part doesn't work once I get it home?
Bring it back and we'll make it right. We stand behind what we sell.
Can you help me pick compatible parts for a full build?
Definitely. Tell us your budget and what you're building for — gaming, video editing, a home server — and we'll help you put together a parts list that actually works together.
How often does new inventory come in?
Constantly. People upgrade and sell us their old components year-round, and the flow picks up around the holidays and at the end of the school year.
Do you carry parts for older systems?
Often, yes. Older-socket motherboards, DDR4 kits, and previous-generation GPUs come through regularly, which makes us a good stop if you're upgrading an aging machine rather than starting from scratch.
What payment methods do you take?
Cash, credit, and debit — whichever is easiest for you.
There's no reason to pay retail for a build that will run just as well on tested used parts. Come see what's on the shelf, talk through your build with people who do it themselves, and put your money toward performance instead of packaging.
