Ummm...

I already knew that there would be "cons" to doing so. The whole point to this discussion was to see if there were any other "cons" I did not think of myself.

I salient point a couple of you are missing is that not all ewaste drop off events are for charity.



Quite a few of them are for profit for corporations or for other scrappers such as yourself.

Am I advocating "riding someones coattails"? No.

Am I looking for any "caveats"? Yes.

I do not mind someone being blunt with me as long as they are not making assumptions.

Again thank you all for your point of views.

The joys of the internet.
