    I've looked into other buyers even Arcoa.

    With the amount of boards i ship i would not be able to drive to them and would need to ship by pallet. More than tripling my shipping costs. So even though the prices are higher i break even if not lose money using that buyer.
    i hear you the shipping costs are one of the deciding factors, and really it works out price wise the same either way, im just lazy and would rather not pull them if im gonna make the same money reguardless, you want the heatsinks pulled fine but i want a better price than the guy that dosent care
