    Just got a huge lot of e-waste due to footwork

    Today I woke up determined to make a few bucks. After sitting on 20 Core 2 Duo desktops for a week now with all my money tied up in them, I was in a bind.

    I grabbed my business cards, and drove to the local thrift shop just to be told they have their own recycler. Strike out!

    Then I went to a small computer store in the "ghetto" where I met Andy. Of course I tried to get rid of some of my desktops through him but he couldnt buy, so I then said I also can deal with no cash on either side. Turns out, big lot!

    Ended up trading 6 of my desktops for 45 of his old computers. Looked like vintage so I gladly accepted. After loading them up into my fathers truck, I kept an eye out for the gold and got these from the lot.



    Then I went to the second computer store and asked if they were interested in purchasing. They said they could do some trades for multiple units, which isnt too bad of a deal, and then they told me they haul 2 truck loads of broken parts a week and whatnot to the local yard to give it to the yard for free. I was told I can take it if I want!

    Now I need to look for a storage unit to hold this stuff.
