    Well it takes quite a few to make a pound. The buyer here that I use pays $35 a pound right now. I think I did better with these on ebay

    6 Rare White Ceramic Processor Scrap Gold CPU Recovery Vintage Collect 1986 | eBay
    FOUR LSI LOGIC VINTAGE CPU RARE GOLD PLATED CERAMIC - COLLECT or SCRAP RECOVERY | eBay

    Of course these weren't name brand, highly sought after chips, but my pictures weren't great either.

    It looks like you did fairly good on these two auctions. I've sold chips to buyers on here and on eBay. I usually did better selling older, ceramic chips on eBay rather than selling by the pound to a buyer. Plus, you will (or should) get paid a bit quicker.

    I have four more of those white CPUs sitting here. I think I will hang on to those to see where the market goes.
