So I'm basically going to buy from scrapyards with these prices.
$2.00 Motherboards Mixed Socket (Large and Small Socket)
$1.30 Small Socket Foreign Boards
$2.10 Finger Board Trimmed/Devalued...
So I'm pretty much tired of cold reading PC repair shops asking if they have scrap. Is there a better way to do it, allowing me to buy and ship Gaylord's to my buyers
Sorry for the delay, I've been getting back to everyone. I actually hv much better direction now, since you guys offered me advice. And I've been working on it non-stop. I've been reading about...
P.S. When I sell the boards do I sort them by the pentium grade or color?
I've sold motherboards before but I'm trying to learn more about them.
To my knowledge there's a few different types:
•Green P3-4 Small and Large socket. Go together.
•Coloreds, Large Socket,...
Crap man, you're right. I gotta deliver this stuff myself. Ok, that's solved.
The scrap yards here don't require us to disessemble them?
There going to be mostly computer boards, I told him to have them separated in boxes. I can also tell him which boards not to buy so I...
Etack, that helped a lot! So basically I can tell him, "the product will need to be inspected and paid for after delivery. A good rule is 5 days after delivery" We pay 5 days after delivery and...
P.S. Shipping a Gaylord thru the postal service would cost a lot of imagine.
I'm in Ct, the good scrap yard is in Nj. They probably won't get as much scrap in the beginning but they're going to start spreading the word that they take in E-scrap so they're expecting a lot.
I understand but that doesn't mean I should just give up. This job can really help me out. Sure there are some issues but I'm sure they can be resolved.
I've only bought from Pc stores and had to drive to another state to sell it. So I'm a bit familar with the process.
The best scrapyard I can bring this too is 2-3 hours away from him. And I only...
I've never had to deal with anything like this before and I need urgent help.
A scrap yard calls me up and asks if I buy E-Scrap, I say Yes. Lets call him Bob. Bob invites me to come down.

He said he just has sheet metal, there's no cats involved. How much do I pay for the sheet metal
So, the Pc scrap field is going down a bit since most ppl dont hv much at the PC shops and gold went down a bit.
So I'm looking to go into a new field that would work WAY better. I just want...
Usually I scrap Pc's and make 500-1000 per load but there VERY hard to come by! So I'm calling up auto body repair shops now asking for junk parts.

Recently I bought a bundle of phones at a scrap yard for 2$ per LB I sold it to another yard in a different state for 6$ LB.
I made like 600$ from it -- that's good money. So I started thinking,...
From my research, it depends on your area. If you hv lots of competition, people will be expecting more money.
You may hv to drive 50-200 miles out of town to get it. That's what I do. Also tell...
Some ppl asked how I got some of the loads I got so I'm more than happy to explain. I also apologize for the delay in answering everyone.

P.S. Just explain...
Wow, there's no way I could do that - that's wayyy to complicated. However I'll be sending you a pm shortly noble.
I know nothing about this and wanted to see if it would work. I'm sure there's manufacturers/companies all over the world that get consistent scrap metal that they put on Ebay/Alibaba looking for...
