I'm looking on govdeals.com for Columbia, SC and found 3 lots of different items for escrap. I figure all of the computers don't have drives in them. I just wanted to ask around to see what others use to determine bid price. I was thinking $3-$4 per computer since I can't see them in person due to distance.

Example:
You will be bidding on 1 Lot of Used Miscellaneous Scrap Computers and Monitors (approximately 121 items total on 3 pallets). There are approximately 80 Computers (15 are laptops), approximately 4 Flatscreen Monitors and 37 CRT Monitors in this lot (variety of name brands and models). The CPUs and laptops have no hard drives and are missing parts.

Current bid is $210. The monitors I'm not counting in my bid as they are a pain to get rid of in my area. Need a glass buyer. So I figure $195 - $260 for the desktops and then another $15 - $20 for the laptops. So I'm thinking of a $250 bid max due to the tax + gas involved on top of my bid.

I suspect these are all P4 computers also.

Suggestions or comments?
