Ok so i am finding companies that will pick up my boards for free
and do all the procedures to them and pay me 82% of the actual gold and other value .
Who is to say the companies are honest but sure sounds like a good deal.

Run don't walk, away from them . Unless there a buyer from here or the other forum that has some referrals. This co. will pay you 82% of how much value, there is the argument. Are you talking "Cash for Gold" or something like that??
There is some posts on here about how one or two guys got screwed by them, and I'm not talking about Ewasted's business name. They screwed them hard, like a 20 some dollar payday. HooBoy,,,
From my experiences, it is too good to be true... there are no domestic full melt refineries. In other words, they run it, sample it, charge you (take their percentage) and send it out to a the appropriate refinery for recovery. As a refiner once told me "we aren't in business to lose money"
do you mean all the boards ultimately go out of the country?Quote:

i. e.: send me all your Fed Res dollars and Ill send you back 82% of their gold value in gold bars.

This is the one I was referring to, still looking for the posts. When I find it I will post it here for everyone to see, that way they don't take my word for it.
OK folks, here it is and this is by tjlock and this is his original post on this matter, SELLER BEWARE!
Here is the whole thread,,Quote:
Yeah, that was my thread. It was a subsidiary company from CashforGold and they bought the computer scrap. I had 27 # package sent to them that contained mother boards, sound cards, video cards, network cards, some cd rom drive boards, and 2 cell phones. I got a whopping check for $3.14

since they pay shipping you might try this send them a box of low grade boards and see how they handle that, the most you can lose there is junk you need to get rid of any way.
Even if a company offers free shipping you are still paying for the shipping with a reduced payout in the end. The big 'free shipping on escrap' site out there is run by the same folks that run Cash4Gold.com and another person posted where they sent something like 35 lbs of mother boards in and got a check for like $4.Quote:
