Just bought an auction lot of computer parts.
This was the monitors that were included, I will only be keeping 2 or 3 of them, the rest will be donated to the thrift store. Anybody close to Columbus, Ohio sees anything they want let me know before I take them in.

Not sure what type are in the boxes.

Before someone complains this is not the for-sale section, I mean free. :)

Thats weird.
The one by us has a lot of computer stuff, always 10 to 15 monitors and lots of towers.

Which is why most thrift stores won't take it. :) They started taking complete, working machines only, and then they stopped taking even those... They just don't sell.
 
i tried giving a monitor to many thrift stores in my area and they would not take it.

That's because the general public has been duped into thinking LCD monitors are awesome. When I was working with my brother in AZ, I was stuck with a damnable LCD monitor at first, but then I found a nice ViewSonic 19" CRT and ditched the LCD monitor immediately. There was no shortage of comments from the peanut gallery either. They reacted as if I was sitting there using a VIC-20 hooked up to a Goldstar 12" B&W TV or something. Idiots. It hasn't been that long since CRT PC monitors were predominate; well, maybe it has been from the perspective of people in their late teens or early 20s.

CRT monitors are the best for gaming. I'll stick with my 21" Viewsonic until it goes out. Contrast on LCD's blows.

Goodwill has teamed up with Dell to accept any monitor, in any condition, anytime. AND, what's good about this is that you will still get the donation receipt to claim on taxes.

That's all Goodwill stores even, make a call and find out.

You should go through those before you donate them. I see a couple that might be multi-sync capable and support CGA/EGA aka (standard and medium res). Those are worth selling to Amiga and arcade type of folks. :)

Could be some good bench monitors in there anyway.
 
Hey Psy!! If you find a 19" medium res in there or two Hook me up!

No problem, when I pick them up I will get some better pictures. Just let me know what you want out of them.
Kinda funny, around three truck loads full of monitors, computers, printers and copiers.
I was the high bidder at $8.75. :)
