Higher volumes than were experienced in this project would probably require a
unique inventory ID to be used in a strict inventory tracking system. Without high
volumes, an inventory tracking system would be inefficient at such a small scale.
3.6 Preparation for Resale
All equipment must be cleaned before sale. The sorter can do this, but the technician
may need to if the sorter is unable or there is no sorter position.
 While still back in the processing room, before any items are put out on the sales
floor, all items for sale should be thoroughly cleaned. Nobody wants to buy
anything that has finger marks and handprints or dirt smudges on it. A little elbow
grease may be needed here, but the end results will be well worth the effort.
 Take care not to get cleaning fluid running down into the cooling vents on the
sides/back/top of monitors. Do not spray the cleaning fluid onto the item and wipe.
When employing cleaning fluid you should spray the cleaner onto a rag or paper
towel first, then rub the surface of the device.
 Be sure not to soak the rag/paper towel. Only a small amount of cleaning fluid is
needed to be effective. The cleaning fluid is from a concentrate and will cut
through most dirt jobs or grease with only a short but sustained effort.
 If you are using rags they will become unusable at a certain point because they will
become too soaked or too dirty. When this becomes the case you can rinse them
out under warm water, then hang them to dry and get a dry rag. If you’re using
paper towels then make sure the dirtied ones find their way into a trash can
somewhere. This will go a long way to helping keep the work area clean.
Further retail preparation is described in Chapter 4.
