46 to 50 towers...shuuuzah!

Today was a good day. One of the contacts I've been working on the last couple months, finally bit and decided him an his boss wanted to get rid of 50 towers. His boss was going to just toss them, and my contact reminded him of me, and what I do. So now I got 46 to 50 towers coming my way this weekend. Said he was pretty sure they all have video, MB, HD, etc. Says likely just missing the ram sticks. I'm ok with this. Ha!



I'll be paying either 5 per or 6 per if they deliver. 6 is more then i like to spend, but I'll eat the $1 if it keeps my contact an his boss happy. I'd be ok for this to be regular deal. Their also going to toss some flat screens my way, no crts..lol. We had a good laugh over tubes and he assured me they got rid of all theirs a couple years back.

Sorry for the rambling, but sure you all understand. I'm just a tad excited.

Hope everyone else had a good day.

New one! An yes indeedy, bulk is nice! Once i get them all I will get some pictures for you all so I can join the club in showing off a truckload of towers. Heh.

I'm just as excited over the flat screen monitors i have to be honest. Not sure if its cause I know they have goodies in them or the fact that if at lest 4 work I can make my giant monitor and drive my wife nuts. LOL.

Sirscrapalot - This space was for rent, but someone beat you to it. Better luck next time!

lol..mech you got a link for everything!

BC..first the sandbar..then the world!

Sirscrapalot - dreaming small

Did you have to pay for them?

"Do you have to pay for them?" - Happy

Yep, gotta pay for the towers. Not sure on the monitors, its something i plan to discuss tomorrow when I talk with them. Me paying for the monitors will likely only be if they all work. The resale of those alone would have me back in the black quickly on this deal, depending on how many they have of course. Either way I look forward to hashing out such details with them tomorrow.

Sounds like a sweet deal!!

Great job! Delivered towers are the best.

Time to open the cooler..haha

Nice deal man...hopefully you find some gems..

UPDATE

So my contact had the owner give me a call, and we just finished talking a few minutes before this post. They are bringing me the first loads tomorrow. Woohoo. /happydance It will also be a reoccurring deal. Not a one timer.

Now I have a question..What would be a good price to offer for the flat screens? They all work. Thats all the info I Have on them now, but will get more tomorrow including model and viewing size, etc. So if anyone has a general ball park idea..I'd appreciate your guesstimate. Heh.

So once again thanks again my fellow SMF folks without you I'd not have the knowledge or the smarts to obtain/process all this.

Sirscrapalot - I'd put a witty tag line but I'm to tired from /happydancing.

Glad to hear it is coming together, AND... will be on going!! You probably know the re-sale market, for your area, better than any of us. For me, 5-6 bucks is tops. I try to sell to a market where I am only getting 15-20. LOTS of competition around here. Good luck, fill the cooler, and celebrate!

SirBroalot-doing a happy dance cuz Sirscraplot has no witty tag line

don't I remember you pulling some TVs out of a hotel, not too long ago? ; )

Ha! A year ago last march! Slow build up then full on steam, thats how I roll, Bear. I owe it you,MikeD, and everyone else here for the ability to be where I am just a year later. Wasn't for you all sharing your advice and own adventures in this game, I'd not be as far along. And I really mean everyone. Even Skippy.
