ty for the input guys. good points. I like idea of reassembling them and i am currently waiting to hear from local company that will pick up monitors for free as long as it is 25 or more. Dont know yet about how they would feel about 800.. so will definitely hold off until i know for certain. Now as far as them being already stripped that is also a valid concern and the warehouse they are beign held in will allow me to preview the lot before i pickup so i will do that if i decide to move forward with this. Also driving around town looking for scrap is the plan but I need to get my liscence reinstated 800$ and then i would like to get a cheap truck) and so i was hoping maybe this could help with those costs.
