filtered out

(i.e. looks

I *know*
Well, I don't think they're selling them themselves... if they have a
policy (perhaps nationally) like the western washington Salvation Army
headquarters in downtown Seattle, they auction off pallets of donated
computer equipment to the for-profit thrift organizations such as Value
Village, Thriftko and Shop & Save.
Unfortunately, the Seattle headquarters holds the auctions not monthly,
not weekly, but DAILY, and at 8:30 AM !!!
