I would take that deal. If im not mistakin they are motherboard grade or maybe low telecom. Either way I think at $1 a piece you cant go wrong specialy if you get the cords with them.
Keep shipping in mind. I pay $1 per for sat boxes. You may need to break off the RF boxes to make them motherboard grade. They snap off fairly easily.
My buyer just paid me for "mid grade high" at $ 2.75 lb.Quote:

I just took around 5 or 6 of them apart some are a pain in the rear. the torx with the little nub in the middle. I forget what they are called but if the cords are there itd be an ok deal
How were you able to work this deal? I'd be interested in trying to get in on this!
Anyone know if there is any resale value in the units... especially the tivo/dvr hard drive type units as a whole? Got a pretty good pile of them and wanted to check before I tore them apart. I hate breaking something up that seems like is fairly new and possibly be useable. Guess at least I would have a medium/high board, hard drive, wire, and the little square o' gold on the card.
Rob you might want to check out Ebay for demand.
I just got a hand drive with a set of security torx sockets at Home depot for around $10Quote:
