    My Local E-waste Prices

    I'm starting to get a decent invetory. Here is a local e-waste dealers prices. What do you think?



    Pricing currently is as follows:
    High Boards ~3-10 (need to see or need clarification)
    Med Boards 1.65-3.1 (need to see or need clarification)
    Low Boards .05-.15 (need to see or need clarification)
    CPUs 5-110/ (need to see or need clarification)
    Gold Fingers 20.00/ (probably want to see these)
    Power Supplies .28
    Drives .15
    HDD .65
    Internal Computer Wire .85-1.15

    The Gold Finger Prices look horrible, what about the Disk-Drive Prices?

    I get same price here for disk drives local. Better than shred and not worth shipping.

    If that price is right for computer wire, jump all over it. meaning, if it includes ribbon cable, you hit the jackpot with this one. Some places grade it the same as christmas lights (30 cents or so), and others are flat out refusing it now.

    High Boards ~3-10
    Anything over $4. - $4.50 is just about unheard of. Real low on the clean fingers (gold), should be closer to $70.00 lb Those are easy to ship cheap, just cram all you can in a flat rate box and send to the best buyer here on the forum.

    Check with some of the buyers on the forum pricing may be similar or even better. I sell my low grade boards to a local yard for .15. Accumulating other e scrap and will sell to a forum buyer in the future. These buyers provide a lot of info for nothing more than our time to search, read and ask questions. We should all consider supporting those who to us.

    That is a pretty wide variance on the boards / cpus. Gives them lots of room to screw you over IMO. Go with some of the board buyers. They have more defined prices. Even with shipping you may come out better with them also price wise.

    I know I've already contacted one of the buyers about shipping and he answered me quickly. Just waiting to get enough stuff to make it worth both of our time / effort.
