    To sell or not to sell

    I would like to know... how I can cut out the middle man..

    I rather send My high volume of processors.. to a refiner, but not sure of a reputable company.

    anyone have a suggestion..

    or should I sell it in small quanities.

    I've over 400lbs of processors.. this is excluding fiber board without heatsink..

    I've over 200 lbs of ceramic.. processors and the rest in black, green, and slot,

    what would You do.. and if You do send it to a refiner who would You send it to.? thanks.

    Some of this has been discussed in the past leaving me with the conclusion that its unlikely to make it work. If I had that much product on hand I would be hard pressed to trust it to anyone with it. You would need to trust a stranger with your valuables and his word on how much gold was recovered. There is also an economy of scale to be considered. You are bringing a large amount of material to the table but is it enough to make a commercial run. Also a large portion of the working world is made up of "middle men" who get paid for their knowledge, contacts and ablity to take risk.

    I congraulate you on getting a great load of cpu's. I would think that if you sent photos and weights of you stash to the buyers listed on the forum you would be offered a premium price. Best of luck, Mike.
