    Tower buy question...

    So what would you experienced guys do in this situation?

    There are approximately 35 Del towers (look like P3 and 4's) + monitors... Several printers. I don't know if the memory is there or the hard drives. All I have is pictures. With this very limited info.



    What could I hope to make from this? I know It's not a lot to go on, but that's all I got. If you were to throw some $ at this what would be your amount be?

    So fellas, what say you?

    Cheers
    Al

    No more than $5.00 ea. for the towers and haul the other stuff away for free. Just my opinion,,

    ilyaz the monitors are CRT. If I did not want to keep and dismantle the CRT a local e scrap company will take them off my hands for free Mechanic688. That's about all this company is good for, there prices suck. Thanks for the input guys!

    Why not strip the monitors leaving the case intact and take them to Staples if there is one close by. They have a recycle program that does not cost anything and you can take up to 6 computer related items per day.

    i would start at 3 dollars and see what he says. You can always go higher if needed. only pay for the towers.

    I would actually start even lower than that and tell them that the price is this low if you have to take the CRTs and the printers. Even if you can get rid of them for free, you still need to load them, haul them, and unload them.
