    Bear's right, the price is too high for current scrap rates. It may be high even at the highest prices we were getting a while back. Best thing to do is go to BarrenRealms website and check out the nice layout of cpu pics and prices. That's a great resource for figuring out what you have or are deciding to buy or not. There are other threads on here that show how many of each type chip are in a pound so you can shop prices, do your math and get a good idea of the value.

    I emailed an offer last night. No reply. So I sent a text just now. 40 for the lot. I knew his response before he sent a text back. "I can get more then 100 on ebay. Ill just sell there." Told him straight up. He will be the only one making money. Good Luck.
