The dumpster at my new location has given me a few things. 20 lbs of romex, an older working craftsman circular saw, a brad nailer, and a few other things...
Yesterday I pulled this Sony 400 disc cd/dvd changer. Very nice condition. I plugged it in and heard the familiar grinding from failed belts. I have two replacement belts coming now for $4 (I no longer have my stockpile of old junk to pull parts from). This will go on ebay to hopefully net me close to $200.
There will always be people throwing away things, that is what people have been taught to do. Old, throw it away and get something new. Broken, definitely throw it away and get a new one.
I will pick these things up, fix them, and sell. I don't go curbco, but there is plenty of stuff out there to stock a thrift store. I think it will always be this way, and those people who can, should take advantage of it.
