    Don't like to give away one of my models but I will say this. One of the best things I read on here was to go into a business with some donuts and a price list. Now this is Alabama, so I went into my first business with some sausage biscuits from McDonald's and a pricelist. I was asked to leave a 55 gallon plastic drum at this computer store. Now I have 19 drums throughout Northeast Alabama and another 15 or so in the show waiting on a placement or to be used as a switch-out. I never went into another computer store with biscuits either. These IT guys talk to each other... Treat them right and they will load you down. One of my drums is at a local dish retailer. About three weeks ago they told me that their company was going to start recycling ewaste. Figured they wanted me to come get my drum, nope. It keeps filling up same as always. Moral of the story is not to brag, I promise it's not. Moral is pay 20 bucks for two green 55 gallon plastic drums, clean them up really good and pay another 30 for vinyl logos and phone numbers on the drums and they will be you new honey holes. People know there is value in this stuff, give them a fair price and they'll be throwing it at you
