    the other thing is you need to just GET THE F ONE WITH IT....they answer 4 out of 50 questions because if you sent ME 50 questions, I would tell you to pound sand. Sometimes you just have to put it in the box and sell it. If you miss a buck or 2 here and there...what are you going to do?? You shipped it out and got WAY better prices than local I am betting, so you didn't "lose" something you didn't already have. If you spend all your time sorting this or that to make $1-2 more...you are just losing money because you lost ALL that time that you could be getting more stuff....

    Sometimes, you just ship it out and collect your money. BESIDES, if you indeed shipping gaylords, you should have ALREADY called them and negotiated a higher price. If I send Ewatsed a GAYLORD of motherboards (say 700-1000pounds), then I will get a better price than 30 pounds worth...that is the way it works. But really TRYING TO SORT EVERY SWINGING board into some imaginary maximum category ends up wasting more time than is generally is worth.



    Ask a couple of questions and get on with it. I have been in sales for 20 years and most of the time, we have to get down to business...not rewrite the book on whatever you are trying to buy...if you do that, I move on to the next guy. That is the way it works. There is only so many hours in a day I am willing to put in....

    And as far as not being able to FIND good info on here...that is silly. Maybe just READING ALL the posts (might take you a few hours) wold benefit you FAR more. Then if you have a question.....google it...it is out there. Then you get to ask. But dude...just get on with it...stop wasting your time and theirs...the old saying, nickle holding up a dollar. I get my stuff, sort reasonably and send it out the door. I get my money faster and then I can flip it again....speed is king when you can make 30-50% or FAR more if reselling (which I do).
    PROFIT is made when you BUY/ACQUIRE NOT when you sell
