It is actually a very regular thing for me to trash pick, repair/restore, and then sell. I make a decent amount of 'side cash' doing this, and 90% of what I offer for sale looks and works FAR better than it did when I found it. Several big-screen rear projectors (some HD), at least one flat panel, a bunch of nice CRT sets, a few tower speakers (Technics SB-L75 and Fisher STV-somethings listing soon), more...quite frequently, I am genuinely surprised at some of the things I list that actually sell.
