    "(8) AL REMOVED 4 $0.00 $0.00"

    Which I interpret as Aluminum removed (has to be heatsinks), 4lbs, with no payment.

    Had I known this policy had changed, I would have been very happy to remove those heatsinks. I could have fit more mass into a smaller box, and gotten paid for the aluminum as well.

    *edit*

    Just saw post's #942 & #943 in this thread.....is there anywhere else that this change was mentioned?
    Hello

    We have had on this thread for a really long time that we do not accept the excess steel and aluminum, it is on the first page. We also ask batteries be removed. We have been patient to allow people to adjust and we are still getting batteries and not charging, still getting excess aluminum and not charging as well as other major problems such as non gold content connectors in the connector mix - Power supply ends, RCA cable ends, power cable ends, etc.

    Unfortunately the removed heatsinks is the "coverage" for additional labor. If you feel duped I am happy to credit you on the aluminum.

    Arguably could've been more clearly communicated, I am certainly guilty of not being perfect. In the same breath, I don't want to "trick" anyone. As we have been since day one and will continue to be, transparent.

    It's no problem. I was just curious, as I had thought that N/S Bridge heatsinks were ok, and had never been docked in the past. From now on they will be removed. Thanks again for your service.

    I have always removed the large heatsink that covers the main processor, but thought it was okay to leave the smaller heatsinks. Are we supposed to remove them?
