    so i went to do a pickup at one place today

    ended up making a last minute decision to head to town for a pickup and im glad i did. first off the owner and i have agreed to certain prices

    .12 for towers without hdd
    2.00 per laptop usually without ram or processor
    free removal of printers (most usually still work)
    and i charge him 5 bucks per crt monitor

    well when i showed up today i ended up scoring 27 laptops mostly dell d600 with good screens (gonna put these up in lots on ebay as is)
    a few getaways

    4 towers
    4 monitors
    and 6 printers

    this pretty much left me with just enough room for 2 bags of groceries and a box of video game stuff i bought today



    will post pics tomorrow when i get it all inside

    Same situation, but instead of hauling cars I cannot cut metal. The wind keeps blowing the torch out.
