I have this build currently in mind to order and build myself, but I am always looking to find cheap deals on something that may provide equal/better performance(possibly a used system off craiglist etc.) and I was wondering what I should be looking for in particular if I'm trying to come up on a deal.

I see people buy pre-built towers all the time without graphics cards/just the CPU and I feel like I might be able to do the same. Any tips/suggestions/ideas/referrals? :) Also, looking for critiques on the build I posted! Thanks
