Anyway, I was just saying that around here, you have some big well known companies that recycle electronics for companies, but they charge out rageous fees...I know as a buddy of mine works for one, and I have helped him a few times with his pickups. They are very through, but costly too.

Around here, I am finding more and more companies want the cheapest deal possible, but that can provide quality service. If they don't bring up price, well, neither will I.

If they do, I am not going to pay up front and get burned, especially when I have a family to look after. I will make them a % offer. That I get the product, break it down, sale it how I want (buyers from here, ebay, or local) and they get a good percent in return. I have had a few who like that deal, and are working towards a decent load to contact me on.

But yeah, if a good deal really came a long, and I knew exactly what I was getting, and what profit I was looking at, I would ask them where do we sign at.

George their are reasons for those fee's.

Overhead, travel expenses, disposal expenses, cert fee's

Before you go diving into this make sure you contact your local EPA. Getting the certs are usually not to bad however getting caught with out them are $1000's in fines.
