I KID YOU NOT! I was looking up some info on an old GE radio and a a very old freezer in the basement when this came up. It is a REAL business in which they resell parts off old appliances like they're cars.

Here is a picture:

I just thought that this was really out of the ordinary. Oh well.

I think that GE on the left is a COPO.

I see those knobs and it makes me wonder. I had to order a new knob for my dryer a while back and it was about 20 bucks... They saw me coming with the headlights and the horn blowing! He had one for a few bucks probably...

We don't have a salvage yard but a local family run repair business. They keep old machines and used parts to sell.Have helped me out several times over the years.Nothing like a Mom and Pop shop that actually care about their customers and business.

I say yes,especially since he's brought bad publicity to the brand by having his stash of unrepairable washers and dryers exposed to the public.......fire him !!!!!!!!!!!!:D.
