hired a woman and her son to haul scrap today, and got 2 calls for comp scrap one with a wheel barrow full of boardsm, qnd one with 7 puters 2 working, all at the right price or better :)
I predicted those who bought gold bearing stuff would soon find it is too much hastle to get the gold, both calls were from people who did just that.
Congratulations.
Good job, olddude! Glad to hear your getting some calls. I've pretty much given up on Craigslist, no matter where I put the ads, they get flagged. Even had them flagged under the small business section. (sigh)
Other scrappers that are doing it most likely.Quote:

Olddude, did you post your add in the computer section?
yes but I changed it up to be more Safety, and recycle friendly.hard drive distruction, every part recycled, no monitors ending up in some ones vacant lot or in a ditch ect. there are several other ads there. looking for "scrap" computers. I think "scrap is a buzz word to some.
If you have a remove for free ad put it under the labor and services forum. It should not get flagged there.Quote:
