Ewaste PM content per unit volume

I would love to find a refiner to trade ewaste for bullion. anyone know of one, that would do that in quantities of one ton or less?

Why don't you break yourself even selling what ewaste you have too. Whatever you have left is free to you so you could sell that as volume justifies then convert that cash into a better form of PM's like gold bullion in a .999 form. It's a more liquid form and the buy and sell spread is quite a bit smaller than un-refined finger cards or CPU's. Better yet find a refiner that you can swap your material for to get PM bullion. If your going to hoard PM's....hoarding computer parts is not the way to go. Think most liquid and purest form. No one knows how much gold a finger card has on it or what karat it is. In a 1/10th ounce gold eagle....there is no doubt what you got.

Your going to have to start calling them up and asking. The gold refining forum might be a better place to ask that but I do know some will take your karat jewelry and trade you out in coin form. I am sure you could find the same for ewaste. There is a spread of course but there will be no matter what. These places got to make a profit somehow and that is where it comes from. That's just the nature of that business.....the trick is to develop a relationship with one or two places and work a deal that benifits both of ya.
