A better day at the recyclers

This is all from the b*stard recycler (Scrap Computer). Today someone else was the manager and he was a lot nicer.

Three broken eMac 1.25 GHz, $25 each. Capacitor plague. Will take to Apple Store for free repairs and then I can resell at $200+ each. That takes care of all the money I spent at this place and makes everything else effectively free!

Color Classic $15

Mac IIvx $10

Clamshell iBook 366 MHz $30. He had another stack of like 7 older PowerBooks. I refused these because the price was too high, they were all $30 each for poor condition units. Only the Clamshell was worth $30 so I took it.

Apple IIc, free because he forgot to write it up in the receipt.

Box of CDs. Over a dozen copies of Mac OS 8 unused perfect CDs, 15 copies of 5400/5500/6500 OS 7.6.1 restore, over 25 copies of sealed Stanley's Sticker Stories educational game, over 6 copies ClarisWorks v4.0, various other CDs. Various Apple CD wallets.

Big bag of floppy disks. Assorted software including System 6, 7, many Claris titles, SimCity, etc.

$10 box of approx. 40 mice including Pro Mice, teardrop, blocky, puck, etc.

My friend got 4 HP toners NIB $15 each, all 4 colors for his Color LaserJet. Retail $50+ each.

All in all this was a much better day than yesterday. With the eMacs alone I can recoup everything I paid and that makes everything else free and extra gravy.

Great to hear that your latest trek, wasn't as bombastic as the initial dealings...that way, you'll be able to recoup yer initial purchases..

By the way, Would be interested in the CC, and some of those cd's, like 7.6.1 for the 6500, mac os 8

sometimes dealing with these guys, is like pulling teeth...
