    New to this/small start

    Hello,
    I am just starting out in the e-scrap stuff.
    I have worked for a large nation wide telco for 45 years and have amassed a large pile of
    circuit cards, most over 20y/o.
    Thought this would be good for the grand kids to make a little money.

    Thanks

    Scraping and using are two very different things. Your free education on the scraping is in the old threads in the forum. Do remember when reading the old threads that prices have changed a lot as has grading of boards.

    I recommend holding onto what you have and educate yourself before doing a lot of breaking down or selling. Also read the other sections of the forum and you will most likely profit from other related and unrelated scrap. Mike

    Now go beat the copper out of something, Miked
