WTB PC Case parts (less the Case)
« on: April 03, 2007, 10:02:12 pm »
Looking for someone about to trash a PC Case and willing to part out a couple items before disposing of it.

Specifcally, I'm looking for:
 >  power button and wire assembly, including the plugs to the pin headers
 >  HDD leds, including the plugs to the pin headers
 >  the hard-drive cage (you can cut it out to remove it, I want to mount the HDDs on top of each other, to a cab)

I'll pay a fair price and reasonable shipping.
PM me, or email me if you can help.  I'd really appreciate it and prefer to recycle as opposed to buying new parts (save the planet   ;D)

I was going to try that tomorrow.
The local ones that used to be nearby have gone out of business, so I'll need to do some ground work. I don't know where any are these days, I think the Geek Squad killed 'em!

I have and have access to plenty of case parts as a friend of mine runs an electronics salvage business. That being said, your best bet is to go to the local shop (as mentioned). Another place is a nearby recycling center. If your area recycles, somewhere is a huge stockpile of electronics. My friend goes to these places and just recently pointed out a few arcade items that was there. It may be worth it to go check one out.
