I thought I’d share this “amazing” story with you of how a woman dropped off a collector’s item without knowing. She had dropped off an Apple 1 computer at a recycle centre in Silicon valley and now the company is offering her $100,000/19.9m Naira/£65,000 but the problem is that tracking her has been difficult as she didn’t provide any contact information. The Vice president of the company (CleanBayArea) Victor Gichun told NBC that the computer is actually values at $200k.
He has asked her to come and claim the money and that he just needed to see her to identify her and oh by the way, she sent the item in for recycling because she had just lost her husband and was clearing the garage.
