    Pick a buyer and look at their prices........Offer him around 50 to 75 cents less a pound than what you can get for it.....You won't get rich but you may earn a client

    Motherboards I buy for $1.00 -$2.00 ea. $2.00 a lb for the cards, $6.00 lb for ram. .30 lb for laptops and .60 lb for wire and cables and I haul away the keyboards free as a service.

    In the Buyers & Sellers there are 5 or 6 different escrap buyers, maybe more. Here's one for an example but you can pick your own in that section. Most of them have their prices listed and their thread usually has a couple of testimonials.
