Dont confuse lithium with lithium ion batteries. They are not the same thing. Lithium ion batteries have scrap value to myself and other buyers here. Lithium batteries like the button cells found on motherboards are hazardous material that needs to be disposed of properly especially if they are old or leaking. If the lithium batteries are new enough and in working order then there is resale potential of 2-5.00 per battery on average. Those CR2032's are a very common lithium button cell size and sell new for around 3.50 each at Walmart/Home Depot.

Thanks for that info. As you can tell I am very new to this and just trying to research and feel my way through. The lithium ion batts are still good, but the alkaline are not(expired in 2011)...tis a shame too, I was thinking of selling 100 8-packs for $100. 7300+ 8-packs = a good potential profit. Also, the BA-5590, which there are 1800+ of, are like a 15ah 12V portable power supply.

CR2032's go for about 1-2 UK pence (about 3 cents tops) on ebay. I bought 10 CR2032's for 20 pence, and they were shipped from Hong Kong. It took about a month to get them but I wasn't in a hurry.
