    I agree. The yard I sell to I also buy towers from the shred guy. If you ask at the office they will tell you they do not buy computers ever. They still make into the shred pile some how. The shred guy pulls them out and sets them on the side. He has permission from the owner to do this. It seems that this owner has in the past sold items to his employees so they could break them down and resell them to him. I think he wants them to make a little extra money without paying himself.



    Perhaps after time you may change their minds. Also contact other scrappers and ask them to sell you their computers. Best of luck, Mike.
