October 2009 Finds

Yes, it's that Goodwill.
Most of the stuff in the back is broken, leftover from other Goodwills, or untested (they're unable to test it).

Speaking of which:

All of this came from the dock sale at $0.50 each. The green folder has all 7 Microsoft Office Suite 2000 discs and COA, as well as some Gateway recovery CDs, a STYX greatest hits CD, and a Shaq rap CD (>_> did not know that was in there). I just grabbed the case and got a random selection of about 15 CDs for $0.50 each, but the recovery CDs and the Office CDs pay for the lot. Not pictured is Eternal Champions, Incredible Hulk, Resident Evil Director's Cut, and Final Fantasy VIII missing one disc. Again, all the CDs and games were 50 cents each so no biggie.

That Little Feat CD is autographed . Never heard of the band, but it's nice to have stuff like that.

I got a few other electronics items to sell on eBay, but nothing extremely valuable. Not to be racist at all but there were like 20 Mexicans, myself and my dad at this sale and it was a madhouse. Those people always buy up the good stuff and swarm on everything at these sales. Heck, on tuesday I saw an old Mexican guy walking off with a very expensive Ion DJ's mixing table. I have no idea where they're all taking this stuff. I never see it at the local flea market. (Again, not trying to be racist, but the area of Waco that this Goodwill is located in is called "Little Mexico" because of it's large hispanic population.

Don't forget that with the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo too many Mexicans became U.S. citizens so they could be Texans not Mexicans .....


And too many of the flea market purchases are sold in Mexico; sometimes with small profits or big profit depending on the person.


EDIT:

I promised myself to comment on this but i just couldn't

Ryann: Just because a guy that is old and looks like Mexican, cannot buy an "expensive" Ion DJ's mixing table ?? ...
or just Mexicans shouldn't buy "the good stuff" to let American people buy it ????
