Board Grade (missing components)

Its more of a chain of emails of a few questions that just stops...yes I could continue to sell my stuff uneducated and loose a few bucks a week over the course of the next ten years ya ya of course...do I want to, no. If I ship this out I end up empty handed for a while, it does not come in the way you think so I am making to most of it until the stream opens up for me. I have the time.

EXACTLY what you said "a chain of emails..."...they just do not have the time to do that...not if THEY want to make money. You have to ask a COUPLE questions and there you go. They are not going to tell you what exact pile every board will end up. Sometimes you have to "guess" based on what you already know. It is not an exact science...some of the SAME type of boards vary GREATLY in terms of what materials are on there. You just have to take the knowledge as you accumulate, ship off, see what THEY think once it is in front of them and modify accordingly. Again, worrying over a few cents a pound is the nickle holding up a dollar thing I mentioned...if I got that money a week sooner I would have already bought more stuff, flipped it or got it ready to send again by the time you got all the answers back. I am not saying just WING IT, but sometimes you have to just trust your instincts and then see what happens.

Again, faster is better for ROI 99% of the time...if the $$$ are in the ballpark. I have made a living in sales for over 20 years. Sometimes just moving inventory is the answer....even if I have to give a bit.

All I was trying to do, like other on here was to tell you that people do not have time for endless questions back and forth...they just don't. Their business depends on speed and they will put in X amount of hours a week to make those $$$, so they will just skip your email the next time if they know that is what they are getting. Just some advice. Read the forum, READ ewasted thread and other buyers as they many times answer questions (ie ALL monitor boards that have flash gold plating are the same for instance...All brown boards are pretty much the same), google it, and then sell it and move on to the next thing. Ewaste is one of those experience things, I have done computers ALL my life, so I knew a TON and ramped up quickly....but I still had and have to just send some stuff on and not REALLY know what it will get classified. AND THAT DOESN'T WORRY ME IN THE LEAST...off it goes and the $$ I get buys the high end electronics I resell to make the REAL money.

Good luck.
