I remember when shred was a penny a pound and I remember when it was 10 cents a pound.



When I was 7 or 8 years old I made good money riding my bike and collecting returnable bottles. 44 years later and I'm scrapping computers and phone systems and selling some of it like ram and processors to buyers on this forum.

Roll with the changes.
Shred is about .07 to .08 thats fine by me

I have some concerns
I have taken apart every thing that can be scrapped from consumers
I knew some motors had AL wireing - balester's some copper many NOT - Compressors Same -
I knew what was real well before the industry responded , I figure the yards did not care
they would sell what recyclers ( Particular china ) would Buy
In time the customer catches on that the Percentage of metal value is not there
So my Concern : All my computer BOARDS and all that goes with it
Not to scare any one but when it comes to recyclers they are the buyers
changes in law's could quickly change value .
I need sell my computer items , not to say the ride is over
but I don't want to find out it is when I have Box's and box's of them .
OK who buys them Here !!
