    What actually happens when you leave our place of business is we deduct the amount we just paid you from our cash flow ledgers and add it to our inventory that will be sent out anywhere from a few days to a whole month depending on how much more of it we can get and how soon we can get it, because in order to pay you the price we just paid you, we need to get it refined or send it to a special market that allows us to make money, which is just about always a much lower percentage of profit then you just made. Then we get to wait for anywhere from 15-60 days to get that money back so we arrange lines of credit in which we must pay for the use of the money that we are borrowing in order to pay you immediately because that's how the scrap business works. On the bonus side of things I get to know you and help build your business whether it is a hobby or a fulltime gig. You bring me pictures of your newborn babies or let me know someone in your family has passed. We create a family atmosphere and I love what we do. We help you out at times when your bills are short and we trust that you will pay us back either in cash or material and not always at once but over time. We get burnt by a few that don't pay back (Dunemaul) but don't let that one person stop us from doing it again ..
    We cringe at posts like this questioning how much we actually make when its really none of your business. You don't worry how much I have to pay each week for payroll or rent each month or insurance and taxes because we are a legitimate recognized business so please don't stay awake at night worrying that we are making too much money on your material...
    To the customers I have that will read this you know I appreciate each of you greatly and many and most of you are considered friends. This is for members on here who like to comment on a lot of things that are basically wrong and works against the people who take what they say. The buyers on here, especially Mario, spend a good portion of the day answering emails and phone calls from members who have a question. We love doing that because that is how this business works and we appreciate you asking . Just because you comment on 20 different subjects and try to tell everyone that gold will hit 3000 when it is sliding and all information says differently does not make you an expert. It makes you dangerous to the people on here that are trying to make money doing this...
    So to sum things up. Separate things by socket send them or bring them to your buyer and let us worry about how we are going to make our money on it..
    To the customers of Urban E Recycling I thank you for being the best customers I could have and as always my phone is always on for your call on any questions or needs..

    To Mario's customers: He would like you to call him from now on after 11:00 pm each night California time ....
    I can be a witness to this post. Urban has been a great help to me for over a year. He has helped with the purchase of e-waste, he has sent me leads on pick ups of free e-waste and answered hundreds of questions. For these reasons I don't mind driving one hour to get to his place. I would like to add this to this post. I have delt with four different e-waste buyers over the past 6+ years and everyone of them grade thiere boards different and they all pay different prices. Whoever is my I will sort my boards they want me to and I'll take whatever they pay me and I'll be gratefull for whatever I get.
