we also told you that you SHOULDN'T use your own shipping rates...request one from Ewasted...you put all of that stuff into ONE box and I bet you get .30-.40/lb.....it wil kick the crap out of any flat rate box you try to ship in because they won't all fit....I know I do this all the time. Ewasted get premium rates BECAUSE he gets so much shipped on his account.
We also told you to check ebay on the OLD stuff...ie the 5 1/4" drives even for parts will sell for more than scrap most likely....DID YOU CHECK TO SEE IF THEY WORKED?? Same with the 8088 BOARDS....they will sell for more than scrap most likely even if they don't work (either for gold recovery or someone will fix them that know what they are doing...if they work then ABSOLUTELY they will sell for more.
you also DO NOT ship floppy drives...not worth shipping...same with any hard drives...you pull the hard drive BOARD off and ship those at $10/lb....the hard drives themselves would be a losing deal. Take apart and sell locally...part are aluminum and the rest generally
stainless steel. there is a thread on this board about breaking down hard drives.
Just saying that we gave you some REALLY good info, but only part of it seemed to have been read.


- cost of shipping worth the effort?
