The cost of the audit for R2 (EPA backed) is Over $6,000 (assuming you pass round 1 and round 2 with flying colors) not to mention the cost of implementation, lets call it $4,000 since I like even numbers.You are looking at absorbing $10,000 of cost to be in a business where the volumes are on a steep decline.

    The big boys in the business are lobbying to eliminate ALL exports of electronic scrap material. This will significantly devalue the low grade (which is already low), yokes and more.



    Just my two cents

    That sounds fantastic. Wish the big guys in the game would leave the little guys alone. We have respect for a well run business (like SOME of the big guys), why dont they have respect for ours?

    Greed, greed, greed.

    Spot on Hoss... the biggest guys in the industry are meeting behind closed doors to corner the market. This industry may not exist in the next 3-5 years on a small scale... Dell, HP, IBM, Apple all want a piece of the pie now.
