Here's a little update
I got a call from a store asking if I charge for pick ups. I said of course not, he said a company wants to charge him $50 a load. I went straight out and picked up this load of motherboards, cards, and hard drives. He was happy to have the help cleaning up his back room. I was also too happy to help out.

I already sell them at 5 cents a pound but only to my recycler. But if I want some cash on my way to work, a quick stop on the way will do me good.
 
Ahhhh, I just read through 19 pages of posts! First of all, as an attorney, I'm offended that there weren't any lawyer jokes, FOR GOODNESS SAKE EVEN THE CANADIANS GOT ONE! I'm sure all of you will try harder in the future! Second, great job on a helluva thread!

So much for advertisements, I've printed them off, (funded by my uni printing credits) but i haven't had the time to go distribute or paste them around.

Damn those exams.
 
Sometimes you just have to wonder. I put my flyer in about 100 houses around my street. Today is garbage day so I do the rounds for scrap metal and I find 5 full towers at those same houses. :?:

Hell that's more than I find, I'm lucky to find an extension cord.

Yesterday was husbands buying new vacuums for wives day. I don't pick up the machines but I do trim the wires off and I must have trimmed about 10 pounds.

I little update
I will be moving into a double garage next week. I'll post pictures of my sorting stations/bins when done.
I bought this full van load today of almost all towers for $65 and he wants to be another new client. ( sssshhh don't tell my wife I used the new van and not my black beast :shock: )
I now pay out as per this schedule;
Complete towers $5 each
Complete tower missing hard drive $4 each
Tower - no hard drive or memory but with more than one slot cards $3
Tower - no hard drive or memory with only one slot card $2
Tower - Only mother board $1

I do not count in CPU/FAns/Power supplies/wires/heatsinks/Floppies/CD drives or any metal. These are all for me and my time/gas.
I remove any other electronic items as a free service to the client.
As a bonus I trim off any gold fingers ( for my A/P process) from slot cards, remove the metal bracket (steel) and sell them as PC/chip cards which bring in a higher value compared to what I get as a slot card.
Also news around here is that Red/Gold/Purple mother boards are now paid over $1.20 less than green mother boards.

Update on this load: Once torn down and sorted I made a $275 profit.

What is the Three Kick Rule?", found on Web, Field & Stream! :)


A big city lawyer went duck hunting. He shot and dropped a bird, but it fell into a farmer's field on the other side of a fence.

As the lawyer climbed over the fence, an elderly farmer drove up on his tractor and asked the lawyer what he was doing.

The lawyer responded, "I shot a duck and it fell into this field, and now I'm going to retrieve it."

The old farmer replied. "This is my property, and your not coming over here."

The indignant lawyer replied. "I'm one of the best trial lawyers around, and if you don't let me get that duck, I'll sue you and take everything that you own.

The old farmer smiled and said, "Apparently, you don't know how we do things in these parts. We settle small disagreements like this, with the Three Kick Rule."

The lawyer asked, "What is the Three Kick Rule?"

The farmer replied, "Well, first I kick you three times and then you kick me three times, and so on, back and forth until someone gives up."

The lawyer quickly thought about the proposed contest and decided that he could easily take the old codger. He agreed to abide by the local custom.

The old farmer slowly gets down from the tractor and walked up to the city fella. His first kick planted the toe of his heavy work boot into the lawyer's groin, which dropped him to his knees.

His second kick nearly ripped the nose off his face.

The lawyer was flat on his belly, when the farmer's third kick to a kidney nearly causing him to give up, but didn't.

The lawyer summoned every bit of his will and managed to get to his feet and said, "Okay, now it's my turn."

The old farmer smiled and said,

"Naw, I give up, You can keep the duck!"
