I'd just call the stores and ask: http://locator.goodwill.org/

ignorance, greed, stupidity and outright scamming, Goodwill
prices aren't
that much more 'helpful' either. Unless they have a good 'picker' doing
the
pricing, Goodwill and their ilk have a mission to sell old junk for the
cheap. We've all had impossibly lucky finds at these places..
This is just killing me: What are common names/organizations for "goodwill"
stores? I have never once been to a goodwill place that had anything
computer-related, only clothing for the most part. I am clearly looking in
the
wrong places!! Where should I be checking in my local area?
