Sirscrapalot - Needs a beer.

Thanks for the though sirscrapalot,

A miss understanding a few months back, causes PM privileges and Visit Messages to go bye bye, which is why I just tell everyone to email me directly if they need something.

Asking never hurt and I know people have talked about it before on the open forum, but its cool. I will just put some ads on craigslist, and go from there. Not worried over it.

In the game of numbers you will most likely get some individuals to give you stuff with this approach, these individuals get requests like this every week.

George, if you are willing to pay to play, you will increase your chances of getting computers with the good chit.

I am trying to bash people who do for for scrap pcs, or say that they are stupid, or anything else for that matter. It simply works for them, and as an old saying goes, why mess up something that works?

Anyway, I was just saying that around here, you have some big well known companies that recycle electronics for companies, but they charge out rageous fees...I know as a buddy of mine works for one, and I have helped him a few times with his pickups. They are very through, but costly too.

Around here, I am finding more and more companies want the cheapest deal possible, but that can provide quality service. If they don't bring up price, well, neither will I.

If they do, I am not going to pay up front and get burned, especially when I have a family to look after. I will make them a % offer. That I get the product, break it down, sale it how I want (buyers from here, ebay, or local) and they get a good percent in return. I have had a few who like that deal, and are working towards a decent load to contact me on.

But yeah, if a good deal really came a long, and I knew exactly what I was getting, and what profit I was looking at, I would ask them where do we sign at.

George their are reasons for those fee's.

Overhead, travel expenses, disposal expenses, cert fee's

Before you go diving into this make sure you contact your local EPA. Getting the certs are usually not to bad however getting caught with out them are $1000's in fines.
