    What do you do with electronic components

    Have been receiving scrap in the past month... and amongst them are a bunch of components... consisting of resistors, motors, diodes, fuses, capacitors like these

    Just wondering what you guys do with this kinda materials?

    Looks to be new (maybe left over) components, I think I'd try to find a company that deals in surplus components. Someone like that might just buy everything you can get ahold of. Minimize the labor that way.

    Thanks Mechanic! Yes, they are new components.

    Other than selling to companies dealing with surplus, do you reckon there is any scrap value?

    depends on the condition on a lot of it. good stuff will be an easy sell on ebay but may be something to do in the long run so it will take time but scraping sure can caps $2-4lb on ebay of course if you have tant caps a lot more motors and stuff can be a scrap yard if bad and resis and other can sell in lots. fuses are all over the place but if anything can be recycled

    I always feel pain when I see new things being shredded.. But I guess that is how it needs to work until someone can find a use for it.
