    low grade boards - where to sell? (south florida)

    anyone in the south florida area that knows where to sell low grade boards out of TV's. etc.? the 3 yards near me won't take them.
    really would like to get some money for them before sending them to the free recycle.
    thanks

    thx. 18 cents/lb. works for me. just wish it was a bit closer. may have to sit on it a bit longer before i take my thristy truck down there.
    wonder if any yards in palm beach county take low grade? probably just as far... checked out their website, they seem to except dang near everything.

    read many posts lately with price between 2 cents - 15 cents. i shipped to a buyer here last week, somehow got a low grade board mixed in and was paid 17 cents/lb. who is paying $.25?

    edit: we still talking about circuit boards in TV's, right? lol

    about 20 miles north of Fort Lauderdale. you are on the west coast? not worth it for either of us if so.

    edit: unless you want to come pick them up. how many pounds and at what price would you be willing to make that long trip? lol

    Wow, I wish I could get .25 for low grade. My yard just started taking e-waste and gives .04. The guy even told me just to dump them with my shred and not to bother.
    Satisfaction is the death of desire.

    0.25 would make a big difference for me too. I have one place that pays 0.12 for them which is better than the 0.075 I get for shred
