Has anyone heard from Andy, recently?
Right? Like, you are dishonest enough to bulk manufacture fake (and often illegal) documents but you can trust them because, except for that part, they are good people? I'm tempted to just take the...
I just had a minor freakout at work. Thanks for that, JJ.
Real talk: Literally every piece of old arcade systems can be worth huge sums. Cabinets, boards, chips, sticks, and even CRT's with low...
Nope.
I think the blades are fiberglass. That's about all I can offer. There are buyers for that stuff but not many.
Have you considered buying cores? That might open things up for you. Even non-working units can do well to a bulk buyer, one of whom may still be active on the forums.
I have been able to reach Steve through email a few times over the last couple of months. I never was able to make a sale.
DOT regs on taped/covered Li battery shipments only specify special handling requirements per container over 66 pounds. This doesn't apply to a pallet; as I understand it, you can have a dozen-plus...
Have you tried uploading pics to Imgur and just linking? It's super easy. Maybe you have but I didn't see it mentioned.
Check out U P S' new Simple Rates. Here's the link.
The Brownies are looking to compete with USPS Flat Rate and so they created a new shipping product. Weights/dims are limited but you should be...
The problem you run into is that, as a technicality, puncturing a pressurized cylinder counts as "handling" a hazardous waste. There are devices (not cheap) which safely vent and capture propane...
Have you looked at Planet Green for the inks? That's our go-to but they don't handle toner. They also take weird crap like FitBits, calculators, and phones. They payouts have been excellent, given...
I second the comment about FB Marketplace. Craigslist had turned into a dead-end, full of no-shows and spam. Everyone's Favorite Auction Site had kinda gone sour for me, too, since I was never able...
You are going to want to store those screen to screen, stacked on their edges like LP's. The way they are shown in the photo is pretty much guaranteed to ruin them.
Have we all heard about the latest situation in CRT's?

I was scrapping sheep before it was cool.
Plasmas are probably the riskier board, owing to the higher voltages required for the setup. LED and LCD panels should be less problematic, unless the caps are for the starter (or whatever) on the...
I'd put an ad on CL, to see if anyone was already bulking it and moving it along. At least, they might pick up for free. I've looked into Scrapo, an online plastic brokerage but haven't made any...
All of the tubs I have handled were #5, polypropylene. It's a flexible, durable plastic with a high temp tolerance and no real leaching.
AZ and CA are distinct exceptions but many states have landfill bans in CRT's because they are EPA-regulated. The glass is lead-permeated which is the main reason you can't add it to standard glass...
I've gotten mixed reports on ivory resale. I last knew that you had to prove the ivory was taken before 1977(?) or else it fell under the Endangered Species Act and was forbidden for resale in the...
We intake floppies at our facility and send the bulk to a reseller in California. They scrub and refurb undamaged disks for a small but strong demand for them. They cover shipping at Media rates so...
Anyone known to the community?

Nice repurposing of the IBC containers. Do you find your yard bangs them up pretty badly? I have some I'd like to use but I have concerns their offloading process (throwing bins in a pile with...
Is everyone who is having trouble waiting on a print check? I got settled, eventually, with PayPal. It did require some patience, as I am sure you are all aware there have been health issues and...
