And yes, they were just tossed where ever and left there.

That's one of the weird things. They just set up like 3-5 or them wherever and leave. Like Wolfy said, they should have a docking station or whatever. It would make sense for cheaper returns there, but that leaving them wherever was also an option. I assume they have to charge them or something, too, right?
They pay people to charge them and then drop them off in locations of high demand. Theres an app you can download to find them. They can reward up to $20 for each one if its basically dead but those are usually off the grid since the transponder has died too from no battery power and cant actually be found at the location it was last known to be at. People in Santa Monica just use one to pick up like 10 or so more in a cart or something and spend all day recharging them and dropping off the whole bunch on whatever corner is closest .

And theyre super cheap to produce too since they expect them to disappear to either theft or impound.
