    Got 20 Panasonic DBS Business Speaker Phones Today - Anyone Ever Scrap These

    I got a load of 20 Panasonic DBS Business Speaker Phones in Today - They are all broken or else I would try and sell them on Ebay
    Has anyone ever scrapped these, they will be my first phones I have done, just trying to get an idea of what they will yield.

    I have pulled apart many business phones...there isn't alot in them, but once you get in the groove you can do them quickly. There is a brown board, generally an ok green board and typically a small green board that had a fair amount of gold plating on under some of the LCD displays...otherwise, you have a TON of ABS, a speaker and a small bit of wiring. Check Ebay anyways...you might be able to sell for parts and you can recover some $$$....I sell alot of stuff as nonworking/parts.

    Good luck!

    PROFIT is made when you BUY/ACQUIRE NOT when you sell

    In my experience, small speakers sell for $0.10 - $0.75 each.
    Here is me ripping apart a business phone ...

    Here is a link to some photos of what the phones yielded front and back pics. I am not sure what category they would fall in, they are from phones so would they be telecom, or because they are greenboards both side with they just be mid or high grade boards depending on what on them

    St Louis, you might want to change that link since it is a password to your CL post. Wouldn't want to see someone editing it on you.
