sourcing broken electronics
« on: April 07, 2011,18:36:51 »
I am new to the repair game but have always taken things appart to see how they work i work in computers but would love to repair things in my own time. When i go to the tip i see loads of electronics that are just dieing to be fixed but we carnt take aything from the tip just wondering if anyone knows of any ways of getting broken electricals free or really cheap thanks

Hi K/C,

Get to know the chaps recycling - they have needs (Electronic - perhaps lots of others too, but not really our quuq with few sectors ) - Chris

Hi Showbiz,

Guess Brian has thoughts on disembarring virtuous fitful electricals - tar brush slipway stuff, esp if really tinny - Chris

Hi Keith,

Suspect a recent deletion by a justly (and sometime whimsical) near super hero where 'Tinny' and 'Tar brushes' have featured recently and would have kept this thead a bit more 'sensible'

A real 'Red starred' Quuq hero, this chap - Grovelling - Chris

PS - Would suggest that on a deletion, some sort of thread filler would be the biz to prevent foolish Quuq 'heros' feeling even less than heroic.

 - Ah well.

Hi Brian,

Guess you keep some Quuq fairly serious mending folks licking the 'Bus window' - very much appreciated, allthough not quite sure what it means.

Never suggested any serious deletion - 'Wot' on Quuuq where everyone gets a go, even with gross furniture and pointy shoes.

PS - Whimsical should be us - well as there's currently no decent pound to be made, you help keep up our morale, sorry about any quite unintended confusion - Chris

Hi Chris

I think that there needs to be some sort of system to weed out the spammers and the 'gobbledegook' that gets put on here, I tend to get a bit fed up with them - hence the 'micky taking'

I just think we are getting less genuine people on here now, we are now getting posts like: "My LG doesnt work, any ideas?"

Hi Brian,

Spammers are always obvious and sometimes amusing - hence your 'Tar Brush' stuff keeps many 'serious' folks smiling.

My LG doesn't work should keep our Hero 'Tony' on his toes, and 'Sparky' full of his wrathful invective.

Guess would like mainly fairly serious posts, but love a bit of fun, as pure electronic repair stuff can be rather tedious.

PS - Won't add that 'Life of Brian' track again as Quuq folks are not looking on the bright side these days - Sad - but - Keep your 'Tar' up - with many fairly serious folks smiling  - Chris.

Hi Vince,

Good thought - checked out the Norwich site and was buried in duff electricals, though no flat screen tellies. Perhaps more patience ?  - Chris.
