    first payed pc day

    today I made my first time I payed for computer towers, ive done another thread where it was when I missed out on a huge load 300 apx towers this guy from craigslist gave away and some of you said when one door is missed another opens, so the same guy contacted me and said he had 30 to 50 towers, I went up there today we agreed on 2 to 3 dollars for complete tower, his kids, him and myself loaded but didn't count plus he threw in extra stuff a box with 54 hard drives 30 sticks ram 13 slot cleaned processors 18 p3 processors 14 various small processors from dells, 2 flat screen TV's, 2 older flat monitors, a freezer.. cords/cables/keyboards, 3 vcrs 4 printers all extra.. counted up the towers tonight for 64 towers micro and mid size desktops all pretty much complete 8 complete lap tops 6 lap tops with missing memory an battery. one server.. and couple misc items. I gave him 120.00 for the lot and about 12 bucks in gas.. and said id make up some if I had extra on the next time I see him..

    Nice one! Iv just started trying to buy computers. Have had an ad out for a week, but no solid hits. Had one guy ask how much per tower. Told him $3-5. He replies "you mean $300-500 right?" ..........felt like saying "can you read ads?" i have it clearly posted im buying for e waste and recycling purposes. Oh well.

    Anyways sounds like you got a great load.
    If I didn't have bad luck, I'd have no luck at all...

    thanks, appreciate it.. id like to ask you to chat sometime and maby I can reward your help to me in some way. id like to ask you a few questions I haven't got a answer on correctly yet.. I know there here in forums somewhere im still reading and the ewasted has helped some... im also considering asking an admin if I can host a teamspeak server where we as in (forum users and admins) can chat live. I don't know if you ever heard of teamspeak its mostly gameing clans use it to talk over, you can have multiple channels for chat like this forum has diff thread's on topics... only thing is its not for making money across the chat its what it is just for chat, like we can learn about scrappin and what ever talkin we want to do but cant use to sell on..
