New page

Tuesdays at 3pm, to-be-recycled laptop parts are made available for sale through the store for an hour, before they are taken back to the warehouse for recycling. (The first day of this will be July 14, 2009 and will actually happen at 4pm. Future events will be at 3. sorry for the confusion).

First run will be held in the meeting room, and we'll see how that works.

All parts are sold as-is, but for silly cheap (between $5-10 for relatively complete units, less for parts).

+"Scraptop" is the affectionate term for a parts laptop. Sometimes the "S" is omitted.

-All parts are sold as-is, but for silly cheap (between $5-10 for relatively complete units, less for parts).
+Once we realized the potential market for these, though, we started offering them up in the store, for $5-20 each, and they've proven quite popular.

+In 2010, we sold 1596 of these suckas, totaling almost $10,000. The totals were likely more than this, as we didn't establish the db category until February.
