DO not pull these apart for the $4 per pound boards. I just sold like 5 of them on ebay in the last week for between $12 and $20 each. If you dont want to ebay them then ill buy them whole from you. Say $1 or $2 each just get a large flat rate box from the post office fill it up with the drives and send me a PM and ill paypal you the money. Ill even pay for the shipping. Just DVDRW drives not regular dvd roms. THe lightscribe ones are the ones I got $20 for each.

Really george? DVDRW means its a Digital Video Disc ReWritable drive. You know the ones that burn DVD's. A regular DVDrom drive just plays them like a dvd player. A far as cdrom goes that not a DVDRW or even a DVDrom drive. Put a dvd in your cdrom and see if it works. if it does then you dont have a cdrom drive. No on a more serious note if you look at the label of the drives they will say DVDRW. See pic below.
If you notice in the top right is says dvd/cd rewritable drive.

May i ask what your in town contacts usualy pay for them?
About the same..sometimes more..sometimes less...its all based on how much you buy from me at once.
The more you sell to me..better the pricing...the more you buy from me..the cheaper things get.

Gotcha. Out of the 20 machines I got last week I got 6 dvdrw drives but one was bad. I like to ebay stuff and just figured was better then tearing out the 2 dollar board. Plus working for the post office I just drop them in the mail at work.

Thats why i made the post. No sence scrapping something you can make $7 or more profit off of after fees and shipping. hint for you though if you dont allready do it. Go to www.usps.com and order the padded prioity flat rate envelops. They will send them to your house for free along with any other flate rate stuff you want. But the cool part is they only cost $5 bucks to ship anything you can stuff in them. Make sure its the padded ones though the regualr ones are cardboard and dont flex to fit a drive in them. I wrap the Drive in cardboard then stuff them in the padded mailer and it seems to work just fine. I usualy start them at $12 with a $15 buy it now. All but one sold for the buy it now price. The lightscribe drive I did $15 and $20. GO make yourself some more money.

Man, I had just sold 10 gaylords of drives. I have 3 gaylords of these things now. I wonder how many we have in there.

Dont think I could afford a gaylord full of them but sure wouldnt mind a full large flatrate box of them

With all due respect, I did say, that the CDROM drive on my desktop takes ALL types of CD's. Also, I know what DVDRW stands for. I burn movies, music, files, etc all the time. Therefore, I was asking, how you can tell if you have one like you are describing or not.Really george? DVDRW means its a Digital Video Disc ReWritable drive. You know the ones that burn DVD's.

The label, would be on the drive itself, I am presuming. Not sure, as I haven't taken any apart as of yet.
Thanks for the image. Will keep a look out.

Usually is marked on the front of the drive,Therefore, I was asking, how you can tell if you have one like you are describing or not.
