It's a similar thing here 1956. I've been buying e-waste in this area to try and help get it up and running.Maybe make a little bit for myself in the process.
Otherwise ... the nearest yard that buys is a fifty mile drive and they're only paying .45 / lb for mainboards.
Some of the people you deal with are honest. Some are into dirty tricks so you end up playing the catch me if you can game where they're always pushing the limits to see what they can get away with.
It's a close community and you know everybody. When you drive by peoples homes the honest folks seem to be getting by. The other ones are living squalor and theirs is a slipping down life. They have little or nothing and what they do have is falling apart.
I wouldn't really call it Karma cause that's some kind of cosmic retribution that might happen in the afterlife.
It's more like you pay for it in this lifetime. Make good choices and you might come ahead. Make bad choices and what goes around comes around. You end up screwing yourself.
