    Best sale...

    I go to sell this light scribe dvd burner that I picked up for free the other day. I realize this is the same guy I sold a dvd burner to last week so I ask him if he builds computers or something. He says he does.

    So I take the chance to offer him some of the other working components I have and as we're talking I see two computers in the back of his truck. I make a comment about computers coming out his ears or something and he says he's just going to pitch them.

    So I ask if I can have them. He says, "sure! the motherboards are still good."

    ?!?!

    Not only did I sell him a drive, but I got two free towers, AND possibly the chance to pick up all of his broken stuff.

    Best sale of the week! lol
