    Nice haul scrapit, I would yake sveral pizzas if I could get a load like that. I break down a lot of phones and most of the time the desk type phones only have low grade boards. I break down every thing because don't like trying to sell things. I started scraping because I know I have a buyer and I know what I can get for my stuff. No waiting around, no agling over prices just bring it to scrap yard and be done with it. But thats just me.

    Dangerous to let yourself become blind to other possible revenue streams.

    I completely understand where you are coming from when for some things where the difference is literally a few bucks since your time, storage and extra transportation isn't free BUT often times there is much more than a few dollars out there to be made. It takes no more than a couple minutes to do a google search and check to see if there is a resale market for what you have.
