Any additional items you guys would suggest trying to acquire besides the towers?
I wouldnt go much above $2/per pound on the phones. You still have to deduct battery weight, tape battery ends, and shipping cost. Leave some room for profits.
cable boxes i usually go around .15/ pound.. only a mid grade high board
modem / routers .20/.25 pound..better grade board
towers i do a little differnt..$2 ea but willing to spend more on newer towers that i can refurb or part out
