Houdy, Just wanted to say hi. This forum is really helpful for a newbie like me. I just moved to alaska a year ago and I was whiffing through internet auctions and happened to get my hands on a bunch of comps. I needed a comp so I thought that out of all of them I could make myself one for just ordinary household use. Paid 50 dollars for this:
1 X lexmark prevail pro705 good condition. 2 minor scratches. with a lot of extra ink
4 X Hp 1730 monitors
1 X Hp 1730 monitro in box NEW
1 X Hp L1750 monitor
3 X hp 1740 monitor
1 X Royal shredder 10x
1 X hp compaq Pentium D dd1ram prob 256 ?
5 X hp compaq Pentium 4 1 gb ram 40gb hard drive
6 X hp compaq Core 2 Duo 80gb hard drive 2gb ram
7 X Dell Core 2 Duo 2 gb ram 80 gb hard drive
3 non funcioning pentium 4s
2 dell xeon 2 gb ram
a lot of old sound cards
bunch of cables, 20 80gb hard drives
etc
I am a silver and gold bug and so when I figured that there was gold in computers I went berserk finding out how to retrieve it. Dont worry thats not going to happen. Im going to sell what I can at my local pawn shop. But the rest has to be scrapped. Im a computer guy so I do enjoy scrapping pcs.
Questions
Ive heard of services that will refine what I have and send me back the gold silver etc. Can someone point me in the right direction??
Can a experienced scrapper tell me what I should be able to get out of this haul approx? escrapp only
The escrapping has been an eye opener. Im already planning to do some hobby scrapping up here in the last frontier. Bad part is I dont have much space. Thanks peeps. And keep scrapping and reusing. Its good for the environment and your pockets. Peace
