old working flat screen or new broken can be sold as it for $$ to $$$$ on classified adds and both on scrap yards for $. don't break them to separate components if you just sell the boards, you must have a customer for all the stock in (screen,boards,wire,metal). expect 2-5$ for scrap yard (as it) and 10-50$ on craiglist (depending on age and if they work)
i don't collect crt tv. it's a waste of time in my area, low boards worth almost nothing (10 cents per pound), only the copper yoke can generate cash but it am stuck with the glass and plastic shell
on a computer , there will be :
1 motherboards
1-2-3 gold ram
1 cpu
1 power supply unit
1 floppy/cd drives/none (depending on age)
1-2-3 gold fingered cards (graphic,audio,ethernet, back plane..)
1 hard disk (if you're lucky because most of time on business like this they are destroyed)
few wires
1 steel case
because of you very small volume : count on 5$ of scrap per unit if p3 or recent stuff . 7$ if p4
for my part, i stack all the flat screen and sell it when i have 30 units (one small gaylord). to generate few more bucks and save spaces, i throw the base in shred and put more screen on the gaylord (same price with or without base often)
