This right here.
If you aren't willing to pay scrap value, then the item is going to be considered
scrap. #1 (only?) positive to old computer junk becoming valuable is now folks know
it's worth more than scrap.
I doubt that any of the items going to auction at Christie’s is going to be anything that
would sell for scrap value. That isn’t an auction house that scrap dealers frequent.
It is the stuff not deemed good enough for Christie’s that is at risk of being scrapped.
