I keep coming back to $5 each. HOWEVER...I have a local computer store that I just picked up at and he had 50 computers. Every computer was complete except for the hard drive. I started talking to him about maybe $4 each, and he hesitated a bit. It gave me enough time to realize that I would be biting the hand that fed me to offer less when he was doing me a favor (he knew i was getting started in the biz). He had other buyers but wanted to sell it to a local person. I just bit my tongue and handed over $5 each. He then proceeded to load me up with 2 huge boxes of old laptop parts, batteries, power supplies, drives, etc. He also let me have about 17 UPS systems, couple monitors and a few printers. All that just for the cost of the computers. Plus each computer was loaded with multiple sticks of ram. Then he gave me the 20+ power supplies sitting on a top shelf gathering dust. Anyway, the point is this. Even if you have to pay a bit more, you may gain a loyal customer and get more in return than what you actually paid for. Not in all circumstances, but it happens alot
