    I'm a buyer at prices that would cost you more to ship it then I would pay for it but may I suggest that you look up e wasted or some of our other great buyers here 9n the forum. I would l9ve to buy what you have but I would need it so cheap it's not worth it for you as I would be selling it to the same people here as you can with full profit from it without me taking a cut.

    I hope everyone here enjoyed my longest run on sentence of the day so far.

    That was an awesome one. I find myself doing the same thing sometimes, depending on my mood and how tired I am.

    Remove the 1 period and we'll all call you Travis.

    Seriously been running non stop for far to long. Like months. Wake up start doing something that makes money and continue until I fall asleep with a tool in hand and wake up four hours later give or take and repeat.

    My brain hardly is considered in operating condition I would say.

    not healthy at all.

    the reason, well one of the reasons we do scrap it that it gives us INDEPENDENCE
    not having to work fixed hours
    be your own boss
    if u decide u dont want to work today- then dont work
    and even if its midnight and u decide to clean scrap- u can do it
    if u want to work just 2-3 hours daily
    or even 4 days a week
    whatever- u can do it

    so it seems you are defeating the purpose.

    my understanding is that u just need to live a simple life- thats they key to it all.
    no need to be like many others- always wanting more so they kill themselves working hard to earn enough to get it
    and then by the time they get that item, theres something new that catches their attention....and the cycle continues.

    hell, we make a living off this attitude of theirs bcos theyre always throwing stuff out to make way for new things.

    Keep reading the old threads where you will learn what others have done, what worked for them and what did not. Each of us have very different and yet similar situations so by reading the old threads you are exposed to more experience than you can get anywhere else outside of this forum.

    Normally I suggest you read until you know what and how far you want to break down ewaste. Save the broken down boards, sell the steel, Al, SS, brass, Cu, and wire locally. Once you have as much ewaste you can handle storage wise chose one of the buyers on the forum. Make certain the buyer a current member and has recent feedback. Contact them via their prefered method. Some have web sites other prefer email and find out what they require of you.

    It's easy if you take your time and read the old threads. 73, mike
