Prices of scrap e-waste for components

Don't do it. They are worthless for the most part.... At least for the monitors. There is no where I could ever find that will take what's left of the monitors after extracting the valuable items from them, making them a huge headache and not worth messing with.


Now, if by dvd drives, you mean like out of a computer, already taken out of the computer, I would actually buy those. If you mean dvd players, like ... That you hook up to a tv I would not.



For pricing is have to do some weighing of one.

The boards in them are like $4/lb or so and then the rest goes right back to the scrap yard as light iron. So I'd take one break it into those cstergoies, do the math to get total price , then subtract out time and costs

If I had to make a gut guess I'd say like $0.20-$0.25 per drive would be profitable.... Or 25c/lb
