    hello from southern OHIO

    hello all my name is wade boggs and im from southern ohio,i mean all the way south i live 1.2 miles from kentucky.ive been learning from your forum for about 3 weeks now and i have to say i love it.i just figuredf out how to introduce myself today i tried once last week but messed up.anyhow ive been scrapping everything imaginable since i was around 12 im now 32.around here all my normal avenues of scrap have all but dissapered.now when folks do have junk they want so much for it ther isnt any profit left.so i decided to go a route no one around here does at all.which is e scrap.ive been at it for almost a month now and i really enjhoy it,my normal job is seasonal and im only getting a few days a month right now so i have tons of time to scrap.i have a huge extended family and as soon as the word got out i was taking tv,s,computers,cell phones and printers stuff is pouring in.not to mention the curbside pick ups,and ive made 2 deals with computer repair shops already.my next step is to try and strike deals with the three local junk yards.2 will be easy as they are self owned and i have a very good long term businius relationship with both.the third on the other hand is a big corperation and it may be a waiste of time to talk to them.at the moment im reading at least 2 to 4 hours a night on this sight to educate myself on the prepping and seperating of my boards.i have to say this place is wonderful.ive found most of my answers here.i plan to get a truck and trailor load ready in the coming months and take it to ewaste,s facility as it seems to be the closest to me also i plan on getting a paypal account and getting educated on ebay.it seems like it may be a necesitty if i am going to get in this businius.i have found so much good info on here about board sorting and grading id really like to thank you all for the education and having me.i was on the fence about getting into this until i found this site.then i figured it would be a dooable venture with what ive learned from here so far..anyhow thanks for having me and thanks for the info.ps.i cant help anyone with e scrap questions but im fairly knowledgable about seperating and breaking down automobles and appliance scrap ,you no your average old junk.so if i can help anyone ill gladly do so..scrap on
