    But Hobo..what are they paying is the big question? You say you sell them mid-grade boards. So is their pricing better or even with our buyers here? An that other site you linked..they don't even pay! Just want donations from what i saw.

    I pay for my stuff a lot of the time, it keeps people coming to me instead of the.."We'll pick it up for free, but not pay you for it" type of guys. If that works in someones area great, but it wouldn't work in mine. People like getting paid for their ewaste, it may not be much but it's better then tossing it in the trash.

    It why I can honestly say..I don't have many to compete with. Nobody wants to spend money to make money. Thats ok with me tho..means more business for me.
