    [QUOTE=hills;287927 There's one of the local scrappers here that goes straight for the power supply & the processor heat sink then tosses the rest on the metals pile. He's been doing it for years. Makes me wince when he gets his hands on a core i machine but it is what it is. He just doesn't see a difference between one and another. Can you imagine how many power supplies he has to break down for the copper to make a 160.00$ at the scrap yard ?

    ( Sorry ... i should try to be more positive and not speak ill of another scrapper but ???? )[/QUOTE]

    Why don't you try to offer to buy all the RAM and CPU's from him? Offer around 1/2 of what you get from your buyer and it would be easy profit, plus you can sort out the resellable parts for more. Or offer to buy the whole tower after he is done with them.



    I did this with a few local scrappers and it works out very well. Most have become regular suppliers for me.
