That'd make one a "benefactor" rather than a flipper.

Without flippers there'd be a lot more in landfills. Even vultures are necessary to mother nature.

The trick is to be open and honest. I used to have conversations with local guys who ran the alleys with pickups. Got a few amazing things.

Respect the bucket sub...RESPECT IT!


I watched this auction tick down too. In the end I just have too much on my plate to deal with 30 drivers right now.

for those that have time/a car or a truck,

this can be quite rewarding.

i've made literally thousands of dollars,

and acquired numerous 'works of art'.

(a marantz 10b was quite a surprise.)

There are people around here that do that the evening before trash day. For some reason, it seemed like it happened less this past year, Though.

Back in the prime of ebay, i had 3 different flippers that used to bring me audio stuff exclusively. Two of them have since passed on, and the 3rd i just can't do business with anymore.

Thanks to them, and mainly one fellow in particular i got to enjoy both petting and profiting from things like RCA LC1A, NOS in boxes Stromberg Carlson RF-475's, Altec 639 birdcage microphones, a pair of Neumann/Telefunken U-47's with NOS service parts, a foot locker full of Nagra accessories including two 4.2's and the highly sought after synchronizer, enough rough ESS AMT's that i was the go to guy for Heil air motion tweeters for a while, and just too much other stuff to mention.

Needless to say, i have a quiet appreciation for flippers.

As i think about it, i guess i have a free pair of 210 cabinets and original horn sleds thanks to a flipper as well.
