laptop mobos

I dont know for sure but id think that youd have to have a pretty large amount to get a buyer to bump the price up for laptop mb's. Most have a price for mixed mb's. Id like to hear a buyer chime in on this.

I hate laptops..they r a pita for sure.. Ive been stockpiling to sell on craigslist..they take much more time than desktops n arent worth it..for me anyway.. i can do 3 an hour, getting little return..how about the rest of ya?

yea, i was only taking apart incomplete ones. p3 or older

Last time I sold some boards, my buyer just put the laptop boards together with my other misc. high grade boards, and paid $4.25/lb for them. So I did get a slightly higher price, even if I only had a small quantity. I also hate doing laptops, tons of little screws, etc. Often use a hammer and a big screwdriver. I can do about 6-7 pieces/hour, not really worth it, but I do get a few here and there.

I dont get a ton of laptops but what i do get i throw in a corner and take them i apart when i have nothing else to do. I hate them but they are better then nothin.

I save them up and sell in lots. I also try to repair them to sell and give away as presents. I buy up old laptops from the early 90's and late 80's whenever I get a chance. When things slow down from my lawn care business this winter, and get my stuff together, I plan on becoming a buyer of laptops here in the forums.

Have you seen what laptops are worth now new?? it's hard to resell laptops now a day unless you trick people into buying for laptops for alot.But that's just not right.

I've never "tricked" anyone into buying a laptop from me, but I have sold quite a few for $50-$75 each as well as sold a few on ebay "as parts" for more than scrap value, but you are right that laptops are getting cheaper everday, and we might not always be able to fix-up and resell laptops

I pull the hard drive, ram, and battery immediately because they are easy to get to. Then I stack them for later to pull out the mobos when I have more time.

Mattcotner where do ya sell the screen?
