I don't want you to get offended by my posting this, tjlock, but I decided to quote the prices you would have gotten had you decided to sell on
Ebay. (this is just an estimate based on what is selling on their now. it may not be as much because there is more volume up for sale there.)
- 11 # mother boards & 4 # daughter boards @ $3.45/lbs = $50
- 1 # memory @ $10/lbs = $10
- 2 # old cell phones @ $0.01/lbs = $.02
Total (after shipping costs have been deducted) = $60
For my data I used these two listings:
SCRAP RAM
SCRAP MOTHERBOARDS AND PCIs
Again, I think nobody hear is going to deal with those guys now that you posted this... So, I'll say thank you from everybody! I've never sold anything to those types of websites, and now I know not to! At least you know that those types of buyers are not going to give good rates...
That being said, what were their official "rates"? Did they tell you anything about their rates in their correspondence to you? I have a very sneaking suspicion that they will be selling their stock pile on Ebay.
Again, Thank you very much for doing this research, and I'm sorry it didn't pay off!
