Do you buy clean, permalloy backing plates (off of hard drive magnets)? If so, are the nickel plated ones worth more than those that aren't plated? I understand that prices fluctuate; but, can you give me a general idea of the "average range" price? All plastic, brass, etc. has been removed.

I wanted to take a minute to say thanks to Mario! I moved to Miami this summer, and my dad and Brother took over Thortek Recycling in lima. The ground work I laid, and my old man's ambition have really paid off! They loaded up the old man's new truck with 3000#'s of material to take to the team in mentor! Even after The team at cfcs found a great, and I mean GREAT freight price to send everything on pallets! (My step sister's husband the "freight broker" quoted $700 and the team at CFCS quotes nearly 1/3 of the price)
When the guys arrived today they thought they'd drop pallets and head back. NOPE Mario sorted the boards and cut them a check before they left town!
Amazing service and as a FYI pricing that is 25% higher than anyone else I've found!
Thanks!!!
Sorry if this sounds dumb, I just started getting into e-waste this year, and I was wondering with out going through the entire 19 pages and reading everything you buy e-waste and pay for the box and shipping?
Again I am sorry lol
He will send you a shipping label you print and he takes the amount out of the final pay, get your own box from the grocery or dollar store. His shipping is about a third cheaper than what you could get by yourself, from what I've read.Quote:

Seems like I would be better off selling to him than selling on ebay no???
I enjoy doing business with E-wasted. The most important thing about choosing a buyer is that you can trust them and I trust Ewasted with my material. I have talked to some local buyers in my area (no one on this site), and I just dont feel like they are professional enough, they take a long time to respond to emails, they dont send a price list just general quotes over the phone. I've found the Ewaste buyer I am comfortable with and I look forward to doing long term business with ewasted.
I have sent a 14lbs, then 25lbs, then 70lbs, and my next load I would like to send 300-500lbs if possible to Ewasted.
Does anyone know if sending a freight shipment is that much cheaper per lb. for shipping?
Ewasted posted this yesterday mrsansonite.Quote:

Send us a photo to info@cashforcomputerscrap.com
The IBM looks similar to the Cyrix gold cap, not all IBM cpus are that price.
There are so many variations of CPUs we do our best to group them together.
Thanks
Want to thenk ewasted for another great transaction. Sent another box out today.

Mario,
I saw you had posted a packaging/ shipping guide somewhere but i can't find it. Can you add a link to your 1st post, it would be helpful for all of us.
My first dealing with mario went very smooth everything from package picked up at my door to getting paid took a week.
I will for sure be sending him more as he has earned my business thanks again mario for a great transaction!
The shipping info is on his website. Including getting your shipping label.Quote:

Maybe their swamped right now but mine arrived almost right away.Quote:

Just a quick note. As always I keep getting great service from Ewasted. I am shipping on an almost weekly basis these days and everything is great as usual. And I have a bunch of shipments ahead. It is getting crazy around here. Thanks to a great buyer and a great forum member.
great prices, so much positive feedback, love the website will be sending a large load real soon!! Cant wait!
can you post pics of excess steel and aluminum removed, before and after pics so I can get an idea before I send items out
Just got my breakdown from my 3rd package that I sent. Sending my next one Monday when I get my prepaid label. Flawless transaction Ewasted. Thanks.
what do you pay for cell phone boards and floppy drive boards? and do you cover the shipping cost?
The cell phone boards are listed on his price list on the first page, $11.75. BTW the updated prices are always on the front page for ewasted.Quote:

If by floppy drives you are in fact referring to cd/dvd drives then those are also in his price list and are $4.05/lb. I hope this answers your questions, Mike.
Thanks Miked!
E are you still on ? I need to cover some last minite things. how is the best way to contact phone, here or pm ?
My local board buyer has flaked out and his prices were too low anyway. So i will be getting a big load together to ship out, the wifes been getting on me about my stockpile in the garage, as its starting to get cold again and she wants to use it again.
Yea i wasnt sure about the floppy drives. Ive jus been breaking the gold connector off with pliers, removing the plastic off the front and tossing them in the shred pile. My local yard says he will anything that looks like metal. He wont say directly that he will take electronics obviously. So i am satisfied with that answer. The cd rom drives ive been getting out the boards and sellig the casing as shred then the plastic guts with the motors ivd just been tossing in the trash, to much work to take it apart for 2 tiny motors.
Grab those motors with a bigger pair of channel locks and give a twisting jerk and they'll usually pop right off, those are small screws there holding the motors.Quote:

We took several pictures this weekend. We will get those taken care of this week. Excess metals - the Battery, Steel plate on the rear of CPU (sometimes plastic) and the heat sinks.
I wish I had read the first page more carefully, I just finished today taking all the steel brackets off my many many fingercards, even though it clearly says too on the first page.Quote:

Also, if we want to drop-off our material at your facility should we contact you directly to set that up or use the info@cashforcomputerscrap.com route, or other?
Thanks

Contact the general mail box to schedule an appointment. Thanks!
Thanks for the quick response,
For some reason I thought it said somewhere on the website that I had submitted for a freight quote and then when I looked later I didn't see it, so I was wondering whether or not one had gone through is all. Thanks for the information.
Have not seen on your price list, or in this thread, whether you buy the platters out of hard drives. If you do, what is the pay out? Thanks!
