    I don't think you're wrong at all for asking a capitalist question. When we are all trying to capitalize on the game. It's a free market. You may get yelled at or spit on. So bring your earplugs and some old clothes. You can always try and then find out what happens in real life. I doubt you'll get arrested.

    theres a scrapyard by my house with tons of bikes going to the shred and a number of people outside the line trying to buy the bikes and if you sell the bikes to one these people the yard will ban you. its a shame cuase im friends with many of these bike guys who restore bikes for living or for collectors items, ive seen amazing antiques getting thrown into the shred, it is a horrid shame

    Most of these events, the designated charity receives less than they anticipated and not happy about their good name being USED.

    I tell the scout leaders I deal with that delivered to my door it's $5 a piece on computers , they bring a nice load but always try to sell me things I don't buy . Sometimes I take those items as a favor . But really I don't have sympathy for someone who got free items and now is stuck with them . I.e. Printers,monitors

    Advertise and network . I have more work than I can handle and that's from minor advertising and word of mouth networking .
