I still do not understand what possesses people - But hey - who am I to complain. I am as honest as can be about what condition they are in!

LOL! I don't believe that people will seriously pay that much for processors that are declared dead! It's not as if they are cheap enough to make anything out of the gold value even Smile

Come up to Derbyshire and I'll take you to one Smile I doubt he'll have kilos of Pentium 4 most of the time, but he had over a kilo of K6, K6-2 and even more gold-top processors in a large box lst time I went there Smile £29 a kilo... I can buy a bucket full at random for anyone who wants them and I'll only want shipping (and Paypal) costs added on plus my bus fare for collecting them. When I get my disabiolity benefit reinstated I'll be using some of theback pay to buy a load Smile

If you want me to colelct and also to sift through them for anything specific, if it's there, I'll want a little on top (maybe 10%) for the time involved...

You not understand what people will do with not working CPUs Sad When nothing is known that must be a cash. In Poland (in other countries too) people are cheating in companies : they mount defect CPU and steal working. That is very unfair ! Or they sale them once again with modified description like : NOT TESTED MAYBE WORK BUT NOT QUARANTEE !
I'm going nervious reading that Evil or Very Mad
