    Lessons learned from a terrific community!

    I have spent several hours today packaging materials that I intend to ship to some of the buyers on this site, and it struck me! It was only a year and a half ago that I joined this site, I didn't know my a** from my elbow as far as how to maximize my oppurtunities/profit. Fast forward to today, as I have been packing up several boxes, to go to several parts of the country, it really struck me how much I have learned from everyone on this forum. I should've written this thank you to the SMF community 14 months ago after learning how to seperate steel, but I didn't. I should've written this to the SMF after learning how to effectively purchase and haul away old HVAC equipment, earning a fair chunck of change, but I didn't. So I just want to say thank you to all of the members on this forum who have shared their own experiences and ideas; which has helped many more people, like me, continue in that tradition. Thank you to all SMF Members!

    It's easy enough to know who the thankful ones are DWJ, before they ever say it, it plainly shows in the stats right under their names ; )
    Good luck with your work there man

    I couldnt agree more. Most of the people on this forum share more info then they need too. If it was not for this forum I would not be in the spot I am now as a buyer.
