    I was at his house today looking at some cards he had and talking about the different components on them and he asked if I would be willing to take the cards as a partial payment for the money he owed me. Sure will, and we loaded them up.

    I just got through going through them and sorting them and this is what I got.

    Starting on the left with the first white bin and going clockwise are gold finger cards, gold finger cards with the gold fingers removed, CD ROM boards, 11 small socket mother boards, 21 laptop mother boards, 1 large socket mother board, 1 board from a data switch, and 6 thin client mother boards. In the center I have about 1 pound of ram, 1 slot processor and a mix of large and small cps. None of them were ceramic.


    I would also like to add that the cards came in the white bins and the white bins do not belong to me. I plan on transferring the cards to cardboard boxes and the white bins will be rinsed out and returned to their rightful owner.










    My guess is you got your $50 and then some.

    Yeah, I think so too. Some of the cards were in an old cat **** box. I kept the cards and threw the box away.
