    what do I have and who can I sell it to

    Hey guys been scrapping for a while, just not much of the electronics scrap. I buy alot of my scrap at auctions throughout the state of Florida and have a around 1000 lbs of e-scrap. I need you guys help telling me what I've got and who you would recommend me selling it to. I'm in Tampa but have seen some really good prices on here. To start out with I've got 20-25 whole computer towers, some missing hard drives some complete, a bunch of servers, Telecom hubs etc. Then I've got boxes of stuff I don't know what it is, so I'm uploading pictures and would appriciate any help I can get. OK so I'm having trouble uploading pics so I'll post them later.

    If your not, use a photo hosting site. Or you can try the attachment angle. You'll have to find the thread on that via the search box or the FAQ link.

    Look forward to seeing the stuff. Till you get some pictures up, not much to go on. I could tell you to break it all down then ask, but that would defeat any chance you have reselling stuff.

    So use that patience you have(your in FL..you gotta have patience! I seen ya'll drive down there. ) an get those photos up on here, an you'll have more answers, suggestions, an tips then you can shake a stick at.

    Good luck! An yes..we do love photos.

    Look thru our "Buyer - Seller" section for buyers of your stuff and you can read reviews (good-bad) from their customers and make your own decision. Who I like for a buyer may not be to your liking so you have to find one that you get a good vibe from. Read thru our electronics section so you might know what you have and what it's worth then look at the buyers pricing.
    Last time I recommended something was a Chevy Vega, and we know how well that went over!!

    I have advertising all over he place . Believe it or not someone offered to buy my ewaste in bulk . I initially declined but now I sell them all the stuff I don't care to break down . Like the other pros in this thread said you will find buyers have a section here . You may also want to try to sell on craigslist it's free . But to get maximum profit your best bet I'd to break down and sort yourself , then find a buyer on he forum in your area . If you have the means to transport you could also save on shipping charges as well.

    Good luck and keep reading !
