Subject: Re: Donation policy was Re: CHM gripe
I get this problem a lot and have now started turning
down equipment that
is
too common. I got an email the other day to come pick
up for free 34
complete systems (486 to P550's), had to pass. Sunday I was offered
several
G3 towers for free, had to pass. The list goes on and
yes people do get
mad
at you for not taking their items. Even with a wanted
list and donation
policy online people seem to still want to give me newer generic stuff.
But
I still take items sometime just to be nice to little
old ladies that
call.
Have you tried steering the people with P2's or better to charities that
redistribute those machines to needy families?
