All-
I just bid in, and won, my very first state surplus auction: an early '90s Xerox 2515 printer in unknown working condition. It will set me back $15 and 20 minutes to go pick up. Nooow the question becomes: do I scrap the boards, wire and motors and dump the rest into shred (I don't have good numbers, but I think it comes in at around 100 lbs), do I try to sell it locally "as is" for more than I paid for it, or do I carefully deconstruct it and part it out on eBay one... agonizing... part... at... a... time until there's nothing left but a shell?
There are a few parts currently for sale on eBay, through very few sales. I suppose I can *try* selling a few parts for a couple weeks- if they go, great. If not, they go to the scrap yard with the rest of the chassis...
Perhaps most importantly though, where do I hide it from my wife until it's gone?!
Cheers,
tbg
