    Good evening fellow scrappers.

    I'm new to the forum. I've lurked on and off for a while and figured it's time to sign up. I dabble almost exclusively in Electronic Waste; computers, networking equipment, telecom and non-hazardous medical equipment. My background is in the IT field, so I often have people approaching me with old/broken or unwanted equipment. I've tinkered with precious metal extraction out of curiosity and my interest in science and chemistry, but it certainly is not practical or feasible for me. I am also a member over at the precious metal forum. As I've accrued more material, I've been looking at other avenues of selling it such as Ebay or locating refiners.

    We purchase laptop computers and many components for greater than scrap value. We offer a shipping reimbursement program.replies

    Greetings from Wyoming!

    I work with computers, too. Check for more than scrap value parts- some common things can be sold on eBay, but sometimes there is a buyer here for the occasional odd piece.

    You're already on the right track- the more you read here, the more you learn!
