    If someone had that much material I would imagine they would deliver direct to a refiner and cut out the middle man.
    I know lying is wrong, but if the elephant man came in now in a blouse with some make up on, and said, "How do I look?" Would you say, bearing in mind he's depressed and has respiratory problems, would you say, "Go and take that blusher off you mis-shapened elephant tranny?" No. You'd say, "You look nice... John""

    Where I come from a "wee collector" brings up many disturbing images. No matter I'm unqualified, Mike.

    Well

    We are a refiner company, not a middle name.

    Here is some price

    Low grade motherboard scraps - *$2.50 to $3.00 a pound

    High grade mother board scraps - $3.00 to $3.50 a pound

    Cell phone scraps $4.00 to $4.50 a pound

    This price are ex works. So we are managing shipping cost to our yard.

    We would check the goods before shipping.

    I think you might have to increase your price considerably. Here are examples of two of the known and respected buyers on this board. The buyers are based in the US, where the vast majority of the members of this board reside:

    easyrecycle
    Ewasted

    If someone had 40 metric tonnes to sell regularly they would expect top flight dealer prices.

    What's a " wee collector", a short person who collects scrap or a toilet? Just wondering.

    In Europe escrap/ewaste is called WEEE after The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE Directive). Yes, that's right. We are directed in how we weee.
