    Nice haul you have there. All the schools, etc. around my part send everything back to the county who then auctions it off. Sometimes you can find an ok deal but many times the stuff goes higher then scrap value. We have 5 scrap yards all close to each other so every tom, ****, and harry....plus the drunks scrap around here.

    Great Haul!

    I find it amazing that some of you get to strike deals with schools. I Wish!!! Out here in the Virginia suburbs, the school systems know that they can make a great deal of money through auctioning the stuff off. It goes to the highest bidder (which is extremely high [mentioned in another thread])

    It's a blessing and a curse I suppose. There are so many accounting/consulting/government contracting companies in the area with tons of end of life electronics, but that also is evident by the amount of competition in this area.

    Keep working those connects!
