I'm in Southern California; used to like living here, but nowadays not so much 😐
I actually beat a scrapper to the punch a little over a year ago when I went to visit my sister in the city of Corona. Her husband had a small collection of old PC hardware from the mid 90's to early 2000's, and had talked to a scrapper earlier to come over and take all of it. When she told me that I went to talk to her husband and managed to convince him to let me take a look first and take whatever I wanted. I ended up grabbing almost everything, including an Antec KS-288 ATX case that I now use for my Socket 7 build; the scrapper only got the burned-out remains of an old AT case and a broken external Iomega Ditto tape drive. I've gone back a couple more times since then and have picked the place completely clean. It actually felt good to give the virtual finger to someone like the scrappers 😜
