    That's where you'll want to concentrate on the ones worth shipping, and maybe a bit on the ones that might become worth shipping. I toss all low grade into the shred after removing the heatsinks, transformers and CBM stuff. I also grab the easy little button switches(they usually have a gold sequin looking spring thing inside)

    Yeah it took all I had not to laugh at that price. Ahh well, I'm not a major player by any stretch but wow. I've called 2 others up here and got quoted "a little more than .05/lb that we pay for green boards, since there is more gold" and .45/lb at the other place. Looks like I'm saving up for a delivery.

    Smells like a business opp. Offer all three yards .65/lb and sell in gaylord qty's to a buyer off this site. Winner, winner, chicken dinner.
