    You must have a "friendly" trash company, not like mine that is the largest in the world that buys politicians for "kickbacks". So for us still learning E-waste, 23-25 pounds per desktop a good average weight?

    I tried for two years to buy complete computers from one of the yards I used to sell to. We went back and forth, at first I offered $4 they wanted $5. When prices started really going south, they offered $4 and I countered with $3, they were buying them for $.06 per pound and then $.04. So I felt I was giving them a chance to double their money. I quit selling them my light steel when they dropped the price to $65 per ton. I would still like to get their computers, but we need to work it out for both of us.
