Headed out for my first visit with Ewasted!!!!
New Guy
just want to say thanks to Mario and his crew for an awesome overall experience today. Great bunch of people out there at cashforcomputerscrap !!!! outstanding and they even stayed late for me to come in for my first visit to see them. Awesome they definitely got my business with that kind of service!!! looking at scheduling my next drop off with them.

These guys are definitely a great company to work with. I sent a pallet weighing 675 lbs to them last week, which they made incredibly easy to do. I've never shipped anything bigger that a small flat-rate box to anywhere before this and had no clue how to go about shipping a whole pallet, but the customer service rep was able to walk me through the whole process.
The shipping rate they got me was great also. It ended up costing me a little over $200 to ship it, or about $.30/lb.
Then the payout ended up being several hundred dollars more than what I expected. I was thinking it wouldn't be more than $2,500, but it ended up being over $3,300. They were great to work with, and will definitely be getting all my e-waste in the future
I just sent my first two pallets of material up and it went like clock work! I had the stuff kinda rough sorted in boxes (kept box weights all under 80lb) and the freight arrangements were sweet too; Mario took care of all of that and it was like 100 bucks a pallet (I was quoted 300). It is hard to find folks who do what they say will these days and you can bet I will deal with these folks from now on.

Just finished up our first transaction with Mario as well. Just under 700 pounds. Shipped out at .25 per pound. Fast turnaround and had a check in 10 days. Have another 2 -3 pallets ready b next week. Nothing but good reviews from me.
Pricing updated!
What is the cost for a wire transfer as payment?
Experienced Scrapper
Um, I just finished a transaction with Ewasted and I chose direct deposit, from the time they issued the payment till the time I received it was less than 24hrs and they charge no fee, although some banks charge a $1.00 fee to receive it. Remember, direct deposit is significantly different than a wire transfer, with the exceptions of commercial wire transfer companies, wire-transfers take longer to clear and have a much higher fee, $20-$25 on average, depending on the bank. Some places give options for it to clear quickly but this almost always costs significantly more.Originally Posted by xyz1945
Thus, it is much more effecient to go the direct deposit route, no hold and a $1fee (I wasn't charged a fee). It is quick and easy.

Looks like prices went down again?
Also do you take fax machine and printer boards? Do they fall under telecommunication boards? And also again, do you accept phone jack plugs for gold content?

Decided it was time to leave a review, since I keep getting emails to leave a review.... Done 2 transactions so far and getting ready for the 3rd. Each time it has been flawless, easy. It takes a lot of trust to mail off hundreds of dollars of items to someone you never met, communication is good and payment comes fast. (I choose check so you have to deal with the postal service). The shipping has always been less when going through CFCS, on one shipment it was over 50$ cheaper.
So here is my only question. and I read from pages 23 back to 14. computer wire- need a better clasification of this, and will this include lan cables? and other miscellaneous wires for a computer. For instance the wire on a power supply? Thanks for the great service, Ron
Dang I see prices dropped on parts I shipped in. I can never seem to hit the price change right. Either to early or to late.
My review of service well I have only sent in little shippments as I am going throw my stuff but they are very fast and comunicate very well.
Don't feel bad.......I can't seem to time it right either Still getting the best price on RAM I sent today. Best part is I get to call and try to beat up Mario on the price. Always a great conversation even though I lost the pissing match today. Hats off to Ewasted.

So, I sent my first load to Ewasted, the total weight was 2880.79lbs of a huge mixture of material.
I was worried at first about sending a large amount of escrap to someone, it takes a lot of trust and in today’s society scammers are prolific; sending them your material gives them power and virtually strips you of your ability to protest, fortunately Ewasted and his crew are awesome.
I chose Ewasted for two primary reasons. The first reason being that he has literally hundreds of positive reviews and I have not seen any negative reviews, no other company on or off the forum even came remotely close. The second reason was his quick, polite, and professional responses, both of these were huge factors. I was happy to see how quickly he responded and that even though I bombarded him with questions he was patient with me and never lost his cool, even when I was a little impatient and obnoxious. Quality communication is quintessential in my opinion, especially when dealing with newer sellers. In addition, I found Ewasted’s pricing to be the best I have seen.
He received my shipment right when he was going through and R2 audit while simultaneously losing power to hurricane Sandy. My shipment was completed rather quickly and certainly thoroughly. I was quite impressed with how they sorted, especially how they broke up the telecom boards into so many categories and paid so well for them. In addition to boards I sent heat sinks, hard-drives, wire, connectors, memory, different cpu’s, etc…. I was impressed with their meticulous sorting followed by their quality pricing.
I really appreciate their service and I look forward to doing more business with them in the future. I would strongly recommend them.
Thanks Ewasted!

Hello,
We take printer boards, fax machine boards, etc - paid on sort.
Computer wire - power cables, video cables, ribbon wire with ends, lan cables, power supply wires, etc.
Only cable we DONT buy at that price is the plastic "ribbon" wire that is out of printers - there is virtually NO copper in there.

I just completed my 4th transaction with Ewasted and his guys. When I got my breakdown I noticed that I was paid the complete HD rate instead of the HD board rate. I contacted Ewasted through PM on this forum and he replied very quickly. After a few messages everything was sorted out and he cut me another check for the difference. It was handled very professionally and I am satisfied with the speed and outcome of the whole situation. Got my checks and also sent out another package today. Thanks.

I'm sorting through, itemizing and weighing all my items for my benefit. However, if I wanted, could I just throw every board/drive/ram/etc into a big gaylord and let you guys sort it out? (not the cpu's)
|
I would at least try to seperate it by boxing or bagging up each item. The longer it takes for them to go thru the longer it takes to get paid. If you are itemizing and weighing yourself then why not try to have it prepared for them to do the same?

Filling up my first box of Ewaste now!
Metal Recycling Entrepreneur
Well I got my first boxful right now, just got to get it weighed in. Im not new to shipping, but when the box weighs in between 70 to 100lbs would be my guess, whats the cheapest way of sending it?

It seems as if you should try to keep each box under 70# to keep the shipping down. Go onto ewasteds site and you can get a prepaid fedex label from them and they take shipping cost out of your payment so you dont have to put anything out of pocket. Depending on what you are sending usps flat rate boxes might be a way to go.
