    We purchase laptop computers and many components for greater than scrap value. We offer a shipping reimbursement program.replies

    I'm in Wyoming, so I'm in a unique spot. I buy some things, and it does help.



    I can't really do the appliances thing, though. I'd love to. Out here, though, that would mean that I'd be driving 2 hours for a fridge.

    Giving those that don't want the money makes a friend. I get tires for free from a fellow scrapper. He refused money every time. I mailed him a $20 bill in the mail. We've become a lot closer since then.

    The problem with E-Waste is what's "fair". There are people that think their old Pentium III machine is worth $50. To them, offering $2 is a snub to the face. They are fine with free recycling, though. Go figure.
