    Without pictures of what you have its impossible to say. However if you have a good mixture of boards meaning large socket mother boards and gold finger cards ie video cards and have 1000 lbs using one of the buyers here I wouldnt see it impossible to get near $2000 for it even after shipping. Anyhow you would get way more then .35 cents per lb

    Seems low to me, but the easy thing to do is compare those with the prices from buyers here on the forum. You will have shipping costs, but dont forget the costs you will have in driving 200 miles and the time it takes. I would ship...find a buyer willing to sort for you and just put everything in a gaylord and have someone pickup LTL. Cant imagine 1 gaylord would cost more than $200 to ship to someone in that area of the country (and you have a few to choose from).
