The One Thing You Should NEVER Throw Away

The One Thing You Should Never Throw Away...I got $375 for Mine!

Just imagine, if they were people, we would compare their retirement to the most
horrific and most tortured slow deaths. Left for dead in a cold, isolated room. Their silence
unpredictably and unceremoniously interrupted only by the sounds of their own
violent and careless disassembly.

Such is the fate of the copier that got too old.

A rather unseemly end to it's hard-working existence. One which might have produced
research papers communicating new medical breakthroughs, or perhaps it
built the foundational papers that educated our children. Or maybe it was privy to
the duplication of the latest office gossip...or occasional rude joke.

Now after hundreds of thousands, or even millions of copies, the trade-in gets
banished to the copier graveyard. Most often a liability for the space it takes up.
But occasionally it proves some value for the remaining good parts which can be
harvested -to service machines which have not yet been retired.

You reduce your spending and this liability now becomes a positive contributor
to the bottom line.

But at some point, once the "bones" have been picked clean, a proper burial
is in order. It's time to move it out of your life...off to the great landfill down the road.

But before you put it in the dumpster, (and perhaps long before that) don't make
the same costly mistake that so many others do (I used too). Whatever you do, don't throw
away the circuit boards until you check out their value at the source I will tell you
about.

You understand this. Many times a machine will be condemned because of the
fact it has an expensive PWB (circuit board) that needs repair. Often this can
run into several hundred dollars...and the machine just isn't worth it. So we
tell the customer it's time to upgrade - it just makes good financial sense -
for everyone. The machine gets traded in and rolled into the warehouse until we use up
all the remaining good mechanical parts and then we toss it.

What many don't know (and I just found out this year) is that there is a
board repair company which will actually buy these used boards from you.
Yes...they will give you cash for your board...working or NOT!

Here's why...We dealers demand fast turn-around times. Actually, since
board repairs will usually mean down time for our customers, we want the board
repaired BEFORE we even send it. That need created the Advance Exchange Programs
that are so popular. They will send us another board, already repaired
and then we will send them our broken one in exchange (which they will then fix and
send out to the next guy). It's a great program.

But sometimes they do not have enough boards on hand to do this.

Hence the reason they will buy popular (the most frequently requested and
hardest to find) boards from you.

It's like found money! A treasure chest just waiting for you right in your own
warehouse. It can literally be another profit center for you.

Think of all the money you just threw away by not taking a customer's
trade in. Think of all the money you tossed into the dumpster because
you never knew such a company existed.

Think of all the money you can now make picking up other people's junk!

Here's how easy they made it:

1.Fax (or email) a list of the boards you have (part numbers help, but you can
even just use the machine model and describe the board's function)
2. Request a price quote
3. They send you a quote and you decide if it's worth your time and trouble

I got $375 last week for just dragging three old boards off the shelf, putting
them in a box, and shipping them out UPS!

You can bet I'll be in the warehouse tomorrow making a list of all the boards
I know I won't ever use. How about you?

If you'd like to know more about this company and it's great program, just
drop me an email. I'll get the exact contact info right over to you.
