Another day, another 49 computers.

An update. We're very shortly getting out of the metals game. Instead as a business we will focus on deconstruction, and e waste. I've been killing it as the guys my generation would say. I'm also blessed with having a scrap buyer so near me. The next time I go to see him I will have dismantled 330 machines. I've been using craigslist and newspapers as my advertising media...so far the newspapers are winning. I don't offer much but I pick up and that makes the day for most people (A couple of computers can get **** heavy, especially older HPs (29lb average). We do not take CRTs of any kind, and that's ok with most people, only one business turned me away because of it. I offer to take shred material and in most cases do my best to clean up the former waste area before I leave. As some of you guys know I've had great success with state auctions.

Before I post today's take, some good news. Many of you are familiar with governmentliquidation.com or govliquidation as its called. The other site, govdeals, same company. Anyways, I know I'm not the only one wondering how in the heck the computers are selling on average for 22-40USD a unit when we all know they're junk. Well, China, and I need not say anymore. This will soon stop, as all partner sites as per mandate from the federal government will require a End User Certificate which states the purpose and destination of the material (if you forge these or lie you go to prison if your caught). This is due to a recovery law put in place in 2010 that requires companies like Dell and HP pay into a fund that subsidizes End of Life processing for their products. The long and short...things will change and prices will fall in line, thank god.

I heard it from the horses mouth, my payment method expired today and they called me because it didn't go through. I got to asking some questions and that's the result. Any good scrapper will spread good news around quickly. The when even they don't know, except to say they should have been doing this since 2010.

And now, the scrapper's pinups.

No company is paying to a fund per unit. The consumer is paying that and the company is just collecting it. Just another TAX.
