    I buy computerboards from my local yard. They buy at .15/lb and I buy from them at 2.00/lb. Most still have cpu chip still attached. I can sell at average 3.00/lb. Processing/sorting time is minimal. 500lb for $1000.00 Two hours to process.Two hours to drive to my buyer. Minus 10lbs weight of cpu chips,minus $50.00 gas,that's $1420.00 not including value of cpu chips. Who cares what someone else makes,I'll take a 50% return all day.
