There were several types of material, all sorted and separated before shipment. There were some very high value and very low value materials, so there was a lot of room for "variance", and I would have had zero recourse. His weights exactly matched my certified scales, and I didn't send him my numbers, just a total shipping weight. He paid exactly according to his posted rates. I received a check 8 days later. This is the way things should be done.

Now, about prices. Love this guy's memory prices. And though most other materials have good pricing, I have buyers that will pay well over his rates on certain materials but I have spent years cultivating these contacts. I'm not saying he's unfair, he did exactly as he promised. Everybody has to consider their profit margin, or they won't stay in business.

My assessment: honest, accurate, and timely.
Otherwise, I wouldn't be sending him gaylords of memory.

You say you love his memory prices but wouldn't send him gaylords of memory?

I know for a fact Mario will work with you on prices for thousands of pounds of material. Putting more money in your pocket. So if you already love his prices why wouldn't you work with him for gayloards of material?

I also agree with Shendog, please share this CPU buyer. I want to sell pentium pros @ $60 per cause ill clean house for that, and please don't say ebay.

Mario is by the far the most reviewed, most respected and busiest buyer on this forum.

Prices updated today! If you shipment ARRIVED here by today it will received the pricing from 10/1/12
If it gets here tomorrow it has the new pricing schedule. Thanks

*sniffle sniffle* Right when I send out my lot

Oh yeah, I read that you also buy IC chips at $5/lb, is this still accurate, I didn't see it on the price list? I have 61lbs at the moment.
Meanwhile, I got to go weigh my load before I ship it tomorrow!

I thought I'd clarify a few things.

First, I have no issues with ewasted's business. His prices are comparable or beat most companies that I've dealt with. I've found that companies that pay better usually won't deal with you unless you have x tons, a truckload, or even guarantee them x tons per month.

Secondly, about my CPU guy: The trick here is volume. Massive volume. He claims to sell single-material truckloads straight to a refinery. I suspect that he sends it overseas (and from there?). What I do know is that I send him gaylords of CPU's at a time; and I'm one of the smaller guys he buys from. Also, although his CPU prices are extraordinary, he specializes; he doesn't pay as much for other materials. I even broker a few of his materials to some of my other buyers. Never underestimate the power of networking.

Ewasted runs a clean business. Payment is prompt and fair. And I intend to do quite a bit of business with CFCS.

I have to say I am always pleased with Ewasted.......I understand they are busy but every couple of days there is a check in my mailbox..........I can DIG IT!!!!!!!

I have sent boards in from flat screen tv's. I'm not sure exactly how they were all graded, but none were considered low-grade. I send in any board, regardless of the source, if it is green with a decent number of IC's or gold tracings.

i forgot to check sorry have been dealing with audit related items. I shouldve delegated this.
Anyway, the battery and aluminum heatsinks need to be removed. Also if there is excess metal on the rear of the board, behind where the cpu resides.
The connectors etc can stay.

I find for me that boxes less then 70 pounds(difference from 69 to 71 pounds was $10) give me the best bang for my buck shipping wise. Last time I compared Fed Ex was cheaper then UPS.

Recent transaction I had with Mario went thru without a hitch. Thanks CFCS.

I just sent about 43 lbs for $18. and change. Cheap shipping thru Fedex. Ewasted's label.
