Thanks for the comments. The other thing I found that worked was asking for what I was looking for. None of them had any computer stuff out on display so I'd tell them I just looking for "electronic junk - computers, dvd's and stuff like that. Stuff that's worn out or just isn't being used and I'll buy as junk". Filled the back seat at one place and the trunk at another. Got three towers, bunch of keyboards, two CRTs (took them in exchange for paying less for the "good" stuff) and two brand new DVDs. Plus a bunch of little stuff. One woman wanted to make sure I knew that her computer had a virus. I kept assuring her that it didn't matter. So, if you don't see what you're looking for - ask. The worst they can do is say "No". Plus, then you can give them a card "just in case".
