I am seeing ram going for $20-$30 per pound on ebay. Even the big companies are paying around $20 per pound now. never seen prices this high
And i just got a call from a guy that has some ram to sell for $10 a pound and has a bunch old computer towers as he calls them, im going over there right now.
Which company's are paying $20 plus for ram?
my buyer in new york is at 18, i havnt really searched around but im sure there are ones paying 20 now
and he lets me put in rambus with the gold ram so its like getting $20+ per pound
I don't see any completed listings that have sold for $30 a lb, though there definitely is several pushing $20+ after shipping and such. I think some bidders are hoping to find usable RAM they can re-sell. RAM is pretty rugged, in my experience. You can have them piled in a tupperware for years and they'll still be good, even if they get moved around a bunch.

I too would love to know who buying at 20.00 bucks.. I've over 50lbs of ram right now for sale.
OK lets take that sale and do the math. $25 minus ruffly 15% for ebay and paypal fees is $21.25 now minus shipping of $5 because its more than 13 ounces you have to ship at the cheapist in a padded flat rate envelope for $5. So thats $16.25 for a pound of ram going to the seller. Dont get me wrong a profit is a profit but that just dont seem worth it to me.Quote:

And for life if not resolved after suspensions.
I bet there is people willing to pay more if you have hundreds of lbs..
you can fit 70 pounds in a large flat rate box and sell it for $20 per pound on ebay, after 15% for fees your still clearing over $16, works about the same either way. Luckily ive found a buyer that takes rambus at the full price so it gives me an edge and he pays pretty good for silver ram also like $15 per pound
well than why dont you share with the rest of us who this buyer of rambus is? I for one would love to know.
Yes, please do tell.Quote:

If only one or two is mixed in with a load I buy it but if more than just a few I seperate and give a much lower price
Then don't tease us with the "my buyer in new york is at 18, i havnt really searched around but im sure there are ones paying 20 nowQuote:

Ship next day with tracking and they can't give you a poor DSR
I offer returns. I hardly ever get any.
List accurate, treat all your buyers the way you would like to be treated and be as truthful as you can and you can avoid many of these issues. I have been burned, but just like any other business, you just write it off as cost of doing business.
And my last dispute.... a $100 blackberry... was ruled in my favor. They said they didn't order it and didn't receive it. I was able to provide tracking and get my funds back... it did take a while... that sucked.
I've to agree.. You shouldn't say something if You dont' want others to know.. like teasing a child with candy.. want some candy little one.. sike...Quote:

Not good for reputation to be doing that on this site.. Good luck with Your BUYER.
I have been quoted $16 - 19.50 on gold finger ram.... I have an exporter that I deal with on a lot of my non-ferrous scrap and he offered $19.50 but he only deals in large quantities... I have to send full tuck load of material to get that price.
