    a few computer stores if i could take away the computers that they are going
    to get rid of. It seems that most of them wont give them to you and just want
    to give them to e waste recycling companies, they are a bunch of stubborn
    bastards i tell you it really annoys me, i even went into one store they had a nice
    pile of computers on the floors that they where going to get rid of an even a laptop
    or two, i said to them i will give you money for them and they still said no, i was
    willing to pay $40 or even $60 for the stuff they had i figured i could re sell it or
    even re use it.

    Is there any tricks you can try to convince these bastards to give you stuff?
    It seems they are completely obsessed with giving the computers to e waste
    companies. Where else can i get computers other than the computer stores
    if they wont give them to me?

    Thanks cheers take care the critta.

    Try again....
