Ron, I've been in some scrap yards where they are palletizing the computers and have buyers coming in and buying large lots at .40 per pound and up. I think the .60 is high and would love to find a buyer at that price because I'll just wholesale computers and never take another one apart. Of course its probably an overseas buyer that will only deal in large loads, and they pay more for it. My guess is that some buyers are speculating that the price of precious metals will only go up and choose this as a good investment. Most other types of investments are flat now so it makes sense. You should stick to the $5 per unit price unless there are a lot of obvious indications of higher value (old computers with nice cpu's, or newer computers with resellable parts).
