Large Quantity Ram seller - Page 2

be sure you photograph and id him

make sure you weigh the ram and not the boxes. some people have tricks to make boxes heavier and through off the weights. sounds like a great deal but trust your instincts too!

edit: *throw

The more I think of it, will he take a check? As he has lots more on a regular basis. Better to have some kind of paper trail...

I would like to see someone run with 200# of ram. I suggest for anyone dealing with this amount of cash and unknown people to keep a friend by your side. A lead slingin friend that is

210.4 lbs at $12 per lbs... Found 10 Pentium Pros and another 40 or so processors mixed in with some slot procs as well.. He was a clean cut kid in a Mercedes.. He has another 175 lbs coming on Wednesday. We'll see where this road leads...

Is the same guy? Not so shaddy in a Mercedes?

Same guy.. just clean shaven this time and a bit more friendly and comfortable. First time he was a little unsteady.. He wants to come by after hours for the next delivery. I told him that would not be possible. But.. I will just try to protect myself as best as I can. I have enough employees and security in my building to prevent anything too crazy from happening. Make sure all the deals happen on my terms.. and he was pretty ecstatic about getting 12 per lb.. And I was more than happy paying it.. Especially now that I am going through everything and it is mostly gold ram with maybe 10 lbs of silver/tin.. maybe another 10 lbs of rambus which I am going to clean up. Market seems to be taking a tumble and gold is on the rise.. Might just hold off til next year and wait for the new numbers. Either way, feel pretty confident with the purchase.. Already sorted out about 45 sticks of 1gb memory.

Not a bad deal for the last Friday before Christmas. The boxes were marked "Harvest" when i was emptying them out. It looked like a restoration/moving company was doing a mini operation and was aware of the value of the ram.. But not entirely sure what its exact worth was.
