If you had a chance to buy 10 Intel i486 cpu chips, what is the max you offer someone?
I know a lb would sell for $130+ but I am not sure how many would equal that lb.

If you had a chance to buy 10 Intel i486 cpu chips, what is the max you offer someone?

65$ per pound
I am going to guess you mean to offer $65/lb..but what I am asking, is what should I offer for 10 of these specific chips? Does 10 of them equal 1 pound?

Special thanks goes to Neon_WA from Perth Australia
who weight every CPU and compiled this very interesting list!
Weight(gm)
offer 32.50$ theres only half a pound there
Thanks for that big list...however, what does the numbers represent weight wise?
Also, thanks for the last post of yours as well.
its in grams and if you follow the link they got it in a niffty chart thats easy to read
That layout gave me a headache,,,
take two asperins, and get back to workQuote:

Wait a minute!! If those prosessors sell for 65.00 and THE 10 = 1/2LBS and you offer 32.50 by the time you pay for shipping you'll losse money. No room for profit at 32.50 or am I missing something?
George let me take a crack at this one you need 20 of these to make a lb ($130+ per lb) so 10 will give you 1/2lb(worth about $65). Now if you pay $30 you should be able to double your $$$:D
happy thats why you save up till you get a large rate box of processors to send out. at 32.50 he would be fine.
I agree my last large flat rate box of CPU's paid almost $900.Quote:

What type of CPUs were they PTS? Just ceramics, or other?Quote:

Great list! Thanks for the link.
just a box of mix from regualr green fiber to pentium pro. box weighed almost 50 pounds. You would be surprised how many cpu's you can fit in a large flat rate box when you stack them pin to pin like a sandwich before putting them in the box.
you can get about 50 pounds of copper top cpus in a flat rate box, so say you paid $6 per pound and selling for $10 per pound. subtract out $15 in shipping and your still looking at a 60% profit.
PTS, I appreciate the tip on how to place them in there. Will keep that in mind if the whole refining thing doesnt pan out.Quote:

Your welcome I pay that because I send mine to Barren to refine. Im still saving them up but will send some to him soon. You can type things like weight of Intell 486 CPU in the searchbar and all kinds of links will come up. Thats how I figured out the aprox price on each one.
Sorry screwed the quote up but directed at GeorgeB
better then being broke.

haha...intended or not, I thought this was punny!
Is that the price you would pay for all ceramics, or just the intel 486 chips?Quote:
