I am new to the scrap scene so here go's. Just got 8 rack switches cheap (here they are) 4 - Tripp lite UPS + 3 Cisco 2950 switches + 1 HP 2525 switch. Do you scrap them and if so approx how much are they worth. I know they sell quick for $75 each on ebay...advice??
Ebay.
You can sell something that works for far more money than scrapping it out - most of the time.
While we are at it who is best for whole CPU towers including hard drives...I dont want to put the time into breaking them down?? EasyRecycles seems to be out because the owner is ill.
You don't "have the time" to remove 8 or 9 screws?Quote:

Yeah...that was a dumb thing to say...I will break them down...LOL! Thanks!
$10/100LB........Send as many as you want must be complete
You're paying $100/lb? What's your address?
Read again, it says $10 per 100lbs. Think it was meant as sarcasm since shipping would cost more than $10 per 100lb.Quote:

I tore them down and scrapped them - got telecom board prices so I think I did OK because the boards in those if 48 port are pretty heavy.
I just can't seem to pull the trigger on the whole e bay thing and Craig's List/ Offer Up works pretty good for me ( Sold 100 Computers last week in one lot) and expect to sell the rest to the same guy next week for much better than scrap value.
Best part is all I have to do is remove the hard drives before I flip them.
thank you Kalvin!
