Is there any "market" for old electronics, even for free?
Depends on what it is. Quite a decent market for early personal
computers and some more specialised stuff like SCSI cards etc.
I found a 70s Commodore Pet (8KB RAM) going for 3 grand!
I actually found a recycler in driving distance
who claims he will even take my CRT tvs.
That's certainly a bit dubious.
Why? Presumably they break it for materials, like with any electronics.
I know, except for some weird situation I won't
find, no one wants a CRT TV but what about....
A westell DSL modem Hub
None here, we have moved to VDSL2+ now.
We have fibre optics.
Might still be some demand there.

still offered for $20 plus 9 shipping,
but does that mean anyone can use it?
They can if they still have a dsl service.
My wifi router.
Some do still use those as wifi access points to get more wifi access in
their house.
a router without wifi?
A few do still use those.
I virtually never use my wifi. It's only for the mobile phone, and only because I run science projects on it which would eat 4G data.
