Yep, a company I worked for used to have the contract for Costco return electronics. It's an amazing contract if you can score it, although Costco wised up and kept upping the percentage on high end electronics.
For a few years there we were acquiring all their high end TV's/computers/home theatre at .20 on the dollar

, with 85% of it being sellable without repair, it was crazy. They slowly started upping the price each year though and other companies kept offering more and more.
I remember it going from .20 to .25 to .30 to 45 in one year and then somebody else took the contract when we backed out.
