    Awesome craigslist score!

    So i have had an add up on craigslist for over a month now. Only 1 hit for 2 PCs until today.



    Well a guy calls me up, says he's cleaning out a PC repair shop and wants this stuff gone. So my friend and i hook up the trailers drive the hour to his shop and see whats going on.

    Well after all was said an done i ended up with this.

    1 box full of memory and finger cards
    43 computer cases missing pc parts. Most have power supplies or drives no other parts
    78 complete computer cases many from the P1-P3 days.

    All for only $330.00

    I cant wait to dig into these tomorrow!!!

    Congrats on the score! I think I've seen your ad, when you started posting it was very similar to mine and I think folks thought we were the same guy posting 2x as much. Mine started getting flagged when they never did before. At least there is enough escrap to go around!

    Mine gets flagged all the time. Need to repost almost daily.

    You get a lot of responses to your add?

    Not a ton, no. But I got lucky a couple times with an older guy who moved into a place that had a dozen or so old computers in the basement and a couple guys that used to repair computers that wanted to get rid of their older stock. Then I get the people ignoring what I actually said and trying to sell me their 'custom built PC' for $400, or their monitors for $25 each.
