Possible Lead With Computer Shop

Give me a call and ill run you through it.

I pay $1 for a laptop that I intend to scrap.

Yeah not much scrap value in the laptops..........Be very careful what you get into and stick to your guns...........Don't over pay or you'll lose your ass.....I hardly even fool with laptops unless they are just thrown in with the towers I ussually buy

Guys are missing out. hit up all computer repair shops with them. Im learning alot from some new clients on the retail repair biz and they learning what i buy lol. by i sell my laptops whole by the pound. so i love them.

how in the hell is there not much money in a laptop.............. ok most laptops weigh between 5-12 lbs depending on age. i buy at .60 cents a pound complete and 37 cents incomplete. so im paying between $3-$7.02 for complete laptops and incomplete laptops at 1.85-4.44

I double my money just scrapping them whole. If i take around and try to sell to store owners i expect 25-75$ per broken complete unit.....

So to say a laptop isnt worth crap is like saying a desktop tower is only worth the steel.

*bow

I don 't have a local buyer for laptops and they are not worth shipping so I just don't fool with em but if you want to come get my laptops at .60/lb you are welcome to em

Ill keep it in mind for when i get a new vehicle. I already know i could bank just driving to all the forum members between here and there.

^^exactly

Yeah buy all the desktops u can at twice shread u will thank me for it

yeah computers at .22 a lb cant go wrong

You are closer to him than I am in Alabama so if anything your prices will be the same or less. And I think I'm going to shoot for the next box to him in the 75 pound range and see what the shipping per pound breaks down to them.

My last was about 90 pounds and still at 60 cents a pound. That is from Florida.

If I had the space I would go for the per pound laptop thing. I just shipped 2 gaylords (from somewhere else as a side job)up there and it came out to about 27 cents per pound. Of course the gaylords were about 80 pounds each, but still much better considering there was over 900 pounds of material. Probably came out to about 35 cents a pound for the material. bit there is still the cost of the gaylords as well. I did not pay for them so not sure what they cost.
