- Top Wireless Wholesales
Description
This procurement concerns the sale of a large inventory of surplus used laptops and Chromebooks owned by the School District of Pickens County. The equipment is sold “as‑is, where‑is” with no warranty; the district will palletize and stage the devices, and the winning vendor must arrange pickup, loading, and transport within 60 days of award. Bidders were required to submit a sealed bid package (original, copy, and electronic thumb‑drive) that included a 7 % South Carolina sales tax in the total price. The contract was ultimately re‑awarded to Top Wireless Wholesales for a total price of $24,073. Key points include:
• Scope: surplus used laptops and Chromebooks (various models) plus associated chargers; approx. 80 % functional condition.
• Delivery: buyer‑pickup only; forklift assistance available; no dock‑level loading.
• Payment: cashier’s check payable to the School District, received prior to pickup.
• Procurement method: full and open competition via IFB, later re‑awarded after cancellation of the original award.
