Some of my ewaste finds (Pics included)

What brand phone?

Haha, that top board kind of looks it has a smiley face in the first pic.

Thanks for sharing Jim! An I hear you on the resale thing. I'm in the same camp as you, dealt with ebay back in the day, an am done with it, unless someone else is selling it for me.

Can pull some nice boards from all kinds of phones in my experience. I love getting phones, never know what you'll find in them!

Thanks again for sharing! Look forward to more.

Next is a keyboard and printer, a box of 10 NEC Dterm digital phones and in the center, 2 APC 1000 UPS's.

Nice find! You should be able to get over $100 apiece for all those UPS's on $Bay. Somebody bought one of the black ones last week for $399:
APC SUA1000XL Smart UPS XL 1000VA Uninterruptible Power Supply 878439301674 | eBay

and if you do a little research, read look through my threads, you might be able to find a buyer for the phones.

That is if they are working

I like the copper from the transformer and the battery, nice little pieces to pick up.

I can't believe you're up and about after all that snow clearing you did today! Anyway, yep, good point about functionality. I swear to you, though, I even saw some sold "for parts" for $100. Maybe they're easy to repair?

I know the phone system works. The UPS's work also, they just need new batteries.
I would say 90% of the 'scrap' I get is working when I remove it. My problem is time. I have a full time job installing phone systems and when I get home I have 5 or 6 hours left before it's time to go to bed. I try to spend this time with my family.
Trying to find buyers for this stuff or selling on ebay is something I'm just not going to do. If there's someone in the Nashville area that does sell on ebay, PM me. I'll test what I can and you can sell and ship this stuff.

have your family sell it or hire someone to and triple your income go to Disneyland

I just sold an NEC phone system like the one pictured for 300.00. With the phones you could potentially see double that.

I pointed it out first!

YEssh, people give me some credit!

I dont like the fact that the first board says NSA in the bottom left corner. Theyre always listening and watching... They could be watching right now... Let me just put my aluminum foil hat back on...

NSA, The only part of our government who cares what we have to say.
I talked to a neighbor who owns a small computer store and he showed interest in some PC's I have. Going to give him a call today about the battery backups and the phone systems I get also.
