Ideas/tricks?
Not sure who you are using in Canton/Alliance area but most of these guys are in the .25/lbs range for the transformers and the heatsinks are going for .50-.60/lb. Now if your taking hours to clean low grade all day and then cleaning the components further......what are you really making?.......With that volume your better off selling as is and using your labor on higher payout type product. I've been there and sometimes still do it but the payout in my eyes does not justify the man hours.
