Cool, glad there are other people gathering this stuff! I actually found a tv on my street tonight and tore it apart. I got all the copper of course, and it had two small gray glass bars. The best I could do in methods to pull them out was ripping the top band off and then squeezing the metal underneath with needle nose pliers and wiggling. It broke into pieces, but I got it all off relatively quickly. Maybe this other guy knows something I don't know and can offer that for the good colors. Although the 3 tvs I've actually opened up myself only had either this gray or a "watered down skim milk" white, which I don't really have a use for right now. I figured it would be better for you guys for me to just buy it all instead of just picking by color. Is it better for you guys if I offer you less for those and more for the better colors, or take it all at the same price? What colors are you finding most often? If the gray/crappy white are the hardest to remove and aren't so interesting as a color then maybe you can just skip them over and focus on the good stuff. I can pay more for the better colors if you guys want to do it like that. I dunno about $30/lb... but I want to make this worth it for you guys. I'm not trying to kill myself to save some scrap glass, but I'm realizing this isn't as easy for you guys as I thought it would be in the beginning.
