The e-recycling places in my area that try to recover money through store
front used computer and part salesdo not offer up much stuff past 5 years
old. If it was worth anything it would sell quickly or in the case of older

worked for would donate machines to stopped taking CRT's then eventually
hardware over 7 years old because they couldn't flip it.
