Can i buy one off you OP?

>throwing away current hardware

Pls subscribe.
Maybe, I need to make sure they all work first.
No idea, my company throws out nice stuff like this all the time. I have a fully loaded w530 from here.

keep me posted

Ok, I'll make another thread about it when I have gone through them.

New life doing what exactly OP? Being nice pedestals for stacks of loli doujins?

Don't forget to disable computrace on all of them.

Keep me posted too

Crap, they're on to me.
First thing I do.
Will do.
Thanks, same to you.

I'd also love to buy one as well.

f

What state are you in? I'd love to buy one if you're selling them cheap

I'm not really interested in making money but if your willing to cover the cost of shipping, I'd be game.
Washington

Give them back Jamal

oh good gravy. Please keep updated. Would love to have one.

Make sure you remove company data before removing them.
The reason these things get trashed is because companies are like 'muh data'. Even though trashing them is actually more insecure than having someone dedicated to erasing the data, and then reselling them on ebay to recoup some money.

Sorry, wrong color.
Will do.
Some have wiped drives, others are missing them all together. I'll make sure they're clean.

So you be saying you Givin them for free now there than shipping? Keep me posted.

clean it up and sell to Sup Forums.
????
$$$$

I haven't decided yet. Probably will sell them for the cost of shipping them.
Most of these are pretty clean. There are a couple though that look like they've been spunked on.

zifxxjfw at eelmail dot com
i've got a spare hard drive if you want to throw one of the empties my way. i'm willing to cover shipping costs to CA

I want the spunkdiest one :)

I'll email you later.
The spunkiest two.

What part of Washington my man?

Seattle

Aloha, friend. Any love for the non contiguous states?

Since there is a battery, I don't know if it's ok to ship. Probably be fine though since it would be a cargo plane.

When you're ready to negotiate shit email me at [email protected] I know it's meme name but it's my alt email.

That's fine, mine will be cock mail.

I'm interested if you do decide to sell them.

tvuYKDN6NSiYFrHbFd8qfSXdfqUpbahy [at] airmail (dot) cc

Any chance you'd send one of these to Canada? If sending one without a hard drive would be slightly cheaper to ship then that'd be cool.
[email protected]

That is a terrible email address. I'll let you know.
I'm sure it be fine. There may be some customs to deal with though.

>No idea, my company throws out nice stuff like this all the time
Companies usually take advantage of tax laws. Not sure how it works in Washington, though it wouldn't surprise me if they use them as a tax write-off.

Basically, they buy them, and give them a shelf life (3 years). Every year, tax law allows them to say "this computer is worth 33% less each year", and that 33% gets written on the books as asset depreciation. Twist that around a bit and you can basically say "I have lost value in something, and this is an expense worn by the company, in the process of conducting business".

To make it nice and simple, you pay tax on your profits only. Not expenses. So the bigger the expenses and the smaller your profits are, the less tax you pay. Keep in mind the company has ALREADY spent $2000 per laptop last year, and they still have 2 more years of use to go. But with the magic of accounting, they can basically claim $2000 / 3 every year as an expense to "reduce" their profit and pay less tax.

Of course it's a lot more involved than that. But that is the basics of why companies chuck stuff out at the end of their life. They have already gotten their value out of it, and it's cheaper to bin them than to work through the legal bullshit of selling them. which is a different story altogether.

Interested in one of them, email me at [email protected] if you're interested as well in negotiating a price for one of them.

Really miss having one like I did years ago,

Would you send to Europe as well? If yes, my email is 1738273182 at cock dot li

Man, I would buy one if you ship to overseas.
Does your company trash other nice things, like vintage mech keyboards?

Please let me know if you ship to Ontario, Canada.

i hate capitalism

Mahalo and much love. I will watch this thread with much excitement.

but that's bureaucracy

>Arbitrary rules have loopholes
>Companies exploit loophole
>Blames Capitalism
Blame Socialism, in a free market they would have sold them when they stopped using it.

I'm interested in one for parts + 9 cell battery, don't care if it doesn't come with a HDD.
let me know at mrdollarydoos at gmail dot com what your price is.

p.s. i'm in Australia, but i'll have you post to a forwarding company.

Shipping to Europe? UK or Bulgaria?

I am a fellow Seattle bro and my roommate has been bugging me about scoring a cheap thinkpad for him.

Hit me up [email protected]

Would love to get one or two of them to tinker with, I'm in Tukwila.

Can swap some random fun stuff like tbis if you're interested. youtube.com/watch?v=i39tGLjyoM0

[email protected] the jm stands for junkmail so I really don't care if the address gets harvested and spammed.

at that point you're probably paying more in shipping costs than to just buy one

Xda1?

[email protected]
give me a price and I might take one

Fuck, nice. Am in Europe otherwise I'd buy one.

Good Work OP. Good Work.

NEET Life Is The Best Life.

Why not blame Democratic Confederalism, since you're blaming things that have nothing to do with it?

I hate food too.

>humans have always had capitalism
>American education

Industrialised agriculture can be done with or without capitalism.
Capitalism is a remarkably efficient way to do it though.

>throw away as much food as is necessary to feed the planet
>pay farmers to produce corn so it can be sold at less than market value
>make cheap food that is so unhealthy that 75% of Americans are overweight and 35% are obese
>remarkably efficient

Rest of the capitalist world is doing fine though.

It's not like I want you to give me one, baka.

Paying farmers subsidies is not capitalism. It's government subsidies, and is a form of socialism.
While it is the case that you're paying for food sideways due to taxes, taxes spreads the load for food across the population unevenly, to compensate for the uneven productivity (in principle, in reality those who have the most power and influence also avoid the most tax), to keep food prices low.
Keeping food prices low is good for capitalists since it keeps populations large, people desperate, and labour-pools unable to unionise. The last thing you want as a capitalist is people who can demand equitable compensation for their labours.

any left?

>throw away as much food as is necessary to feed the planet
>pay farmers to produce corn so it can be sold at less than market value

>blaming capitalism for what the state does

Britain, all of europe, the middle east, basically everywhere there aren't famines subsidies agriculture heavily to keep food prices low.

first off, there's barely any of these laptops on sale here in most europe countries.
Second off, they're usually so overpriced they never even get sold, sellers are so stubborn about it as well they refuse to drop the price
I think I paid 3 times as much for my dell latitude than I would in the US

Would you send them to Germany too?

I am
My Email is Nick.trash[at]web{dot}de

Hey op, I would love one of these, I live in cali

seems you are getting a lot of responses now, hopefully I can get in on this... I'll treat you to dinner next time I'm up in Seattle too, if you want

Email is [email protected]

I would be interested in one of these as well if you haven't already been flooded with requests.
whereistheloli at firemail dot cc
But its getting late and I have alot to do tomorrow morning so I might not get back to you quickly.

>amakari tosisyaki qari sosi
Fuck off weeb I hate all of you

I'll pick at random. It's late and I'm leaving work. I'll go through them and update the ones picked. Sorry, to those who don't get picked this round, there will be more since we have hundreds of these.

>implying capitalism can exist without a state to enforce contracts and property laws

hey op why don't you set up some kind of google form so people who want one can put up their email and physical mailing address, you will get at least 100 interested parties.

set up shipping charges like
>0 Local Pickup
>25 Mainland
>50 INT

they put their address up, you roll a RNG, send a paypal invoice to the person who wins and ship it out to them once they pay you the money.


pretty easy 3-4k for you if your company still has their boxes, if not cheap boxes are easy to find in bulk, and t420s are durable enough that you could just tape them to the inside of the box and they'd survive travel.

Because no one wants to put their address on a public form and it's easier to pick shit at random.

What?

If the USPS can get one to Kentucky email me at [email protected]

it really rustles my jimmies that here we are not allowed to take old equipment or even buy them, must throw away
reeeeeeeeeee it really makes me mad to see useful stuff to be thrown away

this is why you smuggle them out when they get piled up in the corner for the dolly to come by and take them away.

In free market OP would work 18 hours, and barely afford to live in a shit shack without plumbing and electricity, and sometime Op would have a twopenny hangover

can i get one from you ? (covering shipping costs ofc)

[email protected]
keep me posted. GA

OP, would you ship to L O N D O N?

Do you do international shipping? If yes then I'm interested.

Would you accept payment in BTC?

why did they throw it? zero total depreciation value?

I'll ship my cum wherever you want it to.

[email protected]

My company has 12 Dell XPS 13 locked up in a cage that are destined for the crusher. Some retards wanted a slim laptop for Managers, but turned out that since these things have no NIC, we can't really use them because we are a medical company, and wireless here is highly restricted, and can't be used because HIPA.

And because HIPA these laptops HDs must be destroyed, and since they are soldered to the board, the entire thing must be destroyed.

Fucking liberals ruin everything

Good! Do it

OP, make an eBay sale page for these. You can make it hidden, and have us but em.

I would be interested in one, if you are willing to give one away.

I'll cover the shipping costs, of course.

[email protected]

If you're not flooded with requests, I would like to buy one. I live in New York and I would love one of those beauties.
[email protected]
