    Okay..... maybe I should put it this way and hopefully my intent will come across better:



    If people don't know any better, someone will always take advantage. I SUGGEST you take advantage and put up your own site offering $2 for PC's and charge $2 for TV's and the other stuff they won't take. Even post their ad showing what a value you are offering.

    I was not accusing you of doing something, rather I was suggesting you offer a small amout of money for the PC's. People will chose you over your "competition". That was my point.

    Thanks, Pete. I didn't take offense. In fact, I agree with you, and, to a degree, I am pursuing the option you suggest. I've approach a yard in town that doesn't currently accept computers and offered to pay for any they get in from people who know better than to be ripped off by the e-recycler I mentioned in my initial post in this thread. The yard agreed to pass my name along to anyone who calls asking for cash for PCs. I think that's a win-win for everyone involved.
