Hi everyone, I introduced myself a couple of weeks back and I got my first question, Since I have been scrapping I have been saving the Hard drives (100lbs) Mother boards (I got 130 or them, so over a 100lbs?). 34lbs of those finger cards, 9-10lbs of memory and 7.2 lbs of the CPU chips. My question is How do you guys ship the stuff to the online buyers without loosing money or making a decent profit? I went with FeD ex to get some estimates and this is all rough since I didnt break out the tape measure and measure the box but the mother boards shipped in a dishwasher sized box will cost 199$ from CT to Idiana (estimates only, used one company that would post there zip code without entering a bunch of info. I estimate that they are worth maybe 330$. That is a lot of money on shipping. So what do you guys use? Also do you break down the harddrives or leave them whole? I know what to do with everything else and what is promting the question is I was able to pick up 60-70 computer towers and 60 monitors from a local high school, now I need to get rid of the computer stuff. Thanks Ron
