I share that exact sentiment! I firmly believe I am helping sustain my environment, helping the scrap buyers, helping refiners, etc. No one benefits when things go unrecycled!
I do think it was nice what you did though Auminer. I have a similar story. I answered a craigslist add for a free power wheelchair. I was the first one to respond and had never seen one from a scrap perspective before. Very excited as it had 3 batteries, VERY heavy, lots of SS and aluminum, etc. Get talking with he guy and he tells me about all the people that wrote him about the chair. One lady in particular really needed it but he told me he was a man of his word and he said I could have it so he saved it for me. I ended up not only telling him to go ahead and give it to the old lady but also told him if she needed it delivered, then I would do that as well. We are like you you sir, blessed and I had a moment of gratitude that allowed me to look past the money. I still wonder what it would've brought though
