Because the center is closed on Sundays and Mondays, on Tuesdays and Saturdays you can expect long lines. I went on a Wednesday afternoon and didn't wait at all.

I said I had to CRTs and the turntable, both in good working condition. She said it would be $25 each for the CRTs and $10 for the turntable. I said thank you very much, and left now planning on putting them online, for free
