I mentioned I would by them from him by the pound, but the issue is he says he leaves the motherboard in the laptop itself, he doesn't want to waste his time taking it out. SO my question is: How would i price these? I can't use weight as the laptop weight would still be included. Should I charge by the motherboard, if so what should that be? Or should i charge an incomplete laptop price by the pound, say .25/lb? Any help would be appreciated as this guy goes through 100's of laptops a month. Thank You.
I'm assuming from your post that this guy is local to you.
If he is throwing the bad laptops away I would try to get them for free. Can't hurt to ask.
I'll admit laptops are some of the last things I want to break down but they aren't that hard.
I sold my laptop mother boards the other day and got 3 dollars a pound for them.
