Think again. This guy better re-think his pricing strategy... |

At $10,500 per pallet US$, this sounds extremely expensive!!
If this was in the US, the most I would pay (including shipping) would be $1000 per pallet. Even that is a major risk without knowing the actual contents. You can buy store returns for around $1500 per pallet. At least there, you have an idea of the contents and the status of the units. I think, I'll pass on this one. Dan |

[Do they have pack rats (rodents) in Oz?] A "scrap" PC -- unless it is something "precious" -- is worth about $10-20. A pallet of PC's is worth maybe $500 (?). A pallet of (reasonably new -- then how did HE come by them?) servers might be worth twice that -- assuming it is a *full* pallet (~4'x4'x4') Have a gander at what stuff goes for here, in bulk: https://uaauctions.arizona.edu/ I'd be tempted to add up the prices of ALL the lots for one of the "past auctions" to see what a "warehouse full of stuff" sells for... (but, I have more interesting things to do!) |

A perfectly reasonable "want", probably derived from "I need X, I have Y, therefore I want X/Y for each Y". All very logical, if unrealistic. I'm cautious about making fun of someone with unknown circumstances and problems. "There but for the grace of god go I", and all that. |

I've got a fair bit of kit -- stashed in various (creative!) places around the house. But, with few exceptions, it's all "serviceable" or "in use" -- not piles of untested cruft that I'd *hoped* to do something with (e.g., SELL!), "someday". Test equipment purchased over the years for various "one-off" jobs, prototypes, patent-proofs, etc. Plus all sorts of "supplies" (you'd consider a box of spare DVD-R/W's "supplies", wouldn't you? Likewise, a box of SCSI cables, another box of patch cords, etc.? : ) SWMBO grumbles, pretty regularly. But, perhaps EQUALLY regularly, she needs some-thing for some-reason and I deliver a-thing that will satisfy that-need, in a matter of minutes! Whew! Another week with THAT "talk" averted! |

I would say he needs to find better medications... i Not just e-waste, but also sewing machines, mowers, sinks, etc. For two and a half million you can turn your home and land into this man's toilet... Which reminds me of a Jeff Foxworthy quote: "Why do rednecks always have a lawnmower but never have a lawn?" |
