If it was 20 gaylords of cell phones I might go watch myself, hard drive boards, ram, and telecom, sure. Actual boards...no way.



The second quandry is that you yourself do not know the process, so while you can go and watch...what good does that do if your unaware of what is right and wrong about the process? Having a professional watch your material leaves you basing your decisions on their reputation on the subject. And your assuming they are physically present for the entire process which is a near impossibility. Please don't take the assumption that the people speaking are naysayers because we are also buyers. Buyers absorb RISK. We do this because we are trading our knowledge of the industry, and of grading to pay you a set amount. Therefore you are receiving security in your material grades and payouts based on that fact.

Again, big 'ol grain of salt.
Again, good info. I can bet non of you are withing 500-600 miles of me, so im still stuck at sending a load and hoping for the best? Seems like im taking the same risk either way, what am i missing?
