I had a gaylord full of cleaned cell phone boards that I sent off and it came back good....so I am going to step it up and spend some money to see if it returns the same.....in short what that means is i'm buy cellphone boards cleaned (no plastic and ect) for $9.00 a pound.

Is that boards from ANY cell phone? If so, I wahoo!

Yea..that's the price for any cell phone board! But it has to be cleaned. Meaning no plastic and no glass just the board.

Cool, thanks a lot for that man. I will work on cell phones too. I didn't think the boards in them would be worth anything, but that is what you get for thinking too lol.

O wait....I said $9.00 i mean 0.09 a pound....lol just joking. Yea we knew they where worth something but we did not know how much so just over time we saved them up and sent them off to be refined and they came back pretty good so we are going to buy them and fill a few boxes and see if they come back at the same if they do..then we will become a strong buyer on it as well......you kinda can say we are testing the waters on it.

Heck, man, even at 0.09/lb it is still better than what I was thinking lol. I was thinking they were worth NOTHING! lol. I knew buyers bought the cell phones for escrap, but I figured it was for other reasons, then to obtain the boards.

But that works out good, because I will sell you all the boards, and I can sell another buyer all the batteries from them (unless you buy them as well), and then throw the other stuff away, unless that is money too lol.

Thanks again!
