    I finally took the internet plunge.

    I finally setup my website.

    After a few days and some long nights. It's about as done as it's going to get for the next few weeks.

    Nice web site. I looked at your prices and you seem to be more of a scrap dealer than a electronic recyclers. I think you should list the products you are most likely to get. Break it down by different equipment. Do you buy printers? copiers? APC's? Projectors? cd or other audio equip? Ect. Of course I would also put that you buy computer parts not just whole units. That's my .02 but again nice sight. I hope to do a similar one soon. Keep us posted on the business it generates.

    But how many local folks will be selling you the small parts, most sell complete units.

    Looks good to me...the only change I would suggest is putting prices on the what we recycle page as well...maybe just general prices in stead of the $$$ signs. Then at bottom redirect the customer to the pricing page for more detailed pricing. I dunno, I don't have a website so maybe I know s%#*. But it does look good. I like the fact you list prices unlike some places that I have looked up on the web...good luck.

    Currently we have 29 consistent sellers that sell parts and complete units to us. We actually now get more motherboards and parts than we do whole units

    I would note somewhere that you could remove other metal items, office stuff, etc. for no charge while you are there!

    Drozenski,

    I do believe, that out of the wordpress sites I have seen, that have been used for an actual website, and not a blog, yours is pretty darn nice.

    Real good job.
