    I've been reading this forum for a couple months now and probably learned half of what I know simply from here. I'm a part time "hobbyist" focusing on E waste. Nothing like a hobby that makes you money. As long as there's something to break down in my garage, that's where you'll find me. I've taken over the garage for the summer, my wife is patiently waiting to see if the loss of her parking spot is worth it. I've only done one drop off so far and made $1100 thanks to Easy Recycle in Texas. That was two months ago and i already have double what I had the first haul. I'm sitting to see if prices go up. I'm anxiously waiting cause I can't wait to share pics and results of my next delivery.
    I look forward to learning more, reading entertaining yet informative posts. I always enjoy reading about a good find, a great haul or any great deal someone comes across. It's a feeling of excitement I still get even if it's someone else's story. I still remember how excited I got the first time I found my first pentium pro CPU. I also look forward to building relationships with many of you. Until then..... Good hunting!

    I've only found one also with all I've broken down, I should have mounted it on a chain for a pendant.

    If I came across 4 in one unit, I'd probably quit my day job..... That's how excited I got when I cam across my first one. It was like I found a fat gold nugget. I've only found 2 out of 500 or so computers. I'd be happy if I keep those averages. M going to treat my ugly one with bent pins like my first dollar made and mount it on a Frame. Only a true scrapper will know it's meaning.

    I made a mistake my first shipment, and sent it to a non SMF member, but I didn't understand all that then. Even though the search was what led me here, and that thread has since been removed. At least he didn't rip me off, it just took forever getting paid. I haven't really had the chance to put another box together, or try another buyer, but at least I know now there are better options
