    TV boards got chopped

    Finally I can't get .15 per pound They pay only .05 I don't see myself going to the trouble for five bucks & working on 100 pounds of boards
    I was told there customer does not want them any more & shipping them out of USA stopped
    Goes with out saying dumping 100 pounds at a time of boards at the yard as mix - - NOT - - I almost feel I was singled out .



    Any recommendations ?

    You'll have to just start pulling everything of value off of them...IC chips, aluminum, transformers...

    Also, you can just start stockpiling enough to make a longer trip worthwhile.
