    I'm not down there but I got both price sheets up here and I didn't see a major problem, I think someone "crying wolf". Their just adjusting for the added trucking charges to bring it up here, A semi and diesel fuel isn't cheap.

    The above post is why i absolutly refuse to ship ewaste. I deliver it to my local buyer and he hands me cash.I could get more if i shipped but this way i have the last minute option of refusal.The other reason i sell locally is because my buyer provides LOCAL jobs to the community.I was born and raised here this area has been hit hard by the recession and jobs are few and far between.The almighty dollar should not always be the main concern.

    The almighty dollar is a concern....I have a family to support etc and I can get more even after shipping than selling locally.......I bust my ass 7 days a week tearing apart nasty, dusty, old electronics and I want a fair price for my hard labor......I am strictly a one man operation and make a decent living doing this......Not saying I don't have bill collectors breathing down my neck for past mistakes but I'm going to continue to ship my ewaste until it becomes nonprofitable to ship
