CHEAP people....let's see your stories about those frugal folks that were smart or really annoying!
I save pretty much every PCB and rechargeable battery pack I come across out of scrap electronics and spend leisurely hours in the garage with the stereo on, heat gun going and pliers pulling out anything that will come out of those boards component wise. I got a pretty good collection of capacitors, pots, relays, resistors and MOSFETS and about 200 18650 batteries. I've been known to wash plastic silverware too. I've also got threee 5 gallon paint buckets full of waste oil, Im just too lazy to haul it to the waste oil sites as they are usually "full" and cannot take any more oil.
