$$$ Buying Electronic precious metal scrap! $$$ - Page 39

I was quoted dual socket server price for laptop motherboards. He has since broken the dual sockets into 2 groups though.

Maybe Mario made a mistake there. Should be higher. Dualies have higher gold content you would think!

Ya I confirmed it via phone, it isnt a mistake. Best to let him explain it, as I may have improper choice of words.

There are other metals involved with pricing circuit boards, not just gold. I'm sure Mario has an equation for all the types of material that he buys, which is dependent on not only gold, but copper, silver, palladium, etc, and prices accordingly. On the other hand, it could have been an adjustment to the equation itself. This isn't an exact science, but determined by averages.

Laptop boards as long as clean of all metal goes for server grade which was %4.00 something a lb before market crashed. But you go to pull all metal including the flash card reader. You throw that reader in with the cold connectors.

anyone know if the DVD/CD/Floppy price at .15 per pound is with boards, or without?

Imagine a video card -those gold fingers if trimmed off so that you don't have a bunch of the green circuit board on them is what he is looking for.

hello ewasted,im new to this i just found out that your actualy not an un drivable distance away from me,about 4 to 5 hours according to map quest so this is making the whole idea of my e scraping businius more and more dooable,i see on your price list it says computer plastic,9 cents a pound i think i read that right.my question is is this only pc plastic or can it also be tv moniter and printer plastic,as long as i take all metal off of it,also i stripped a ton of cell phones befor i saw the prices for whole phones i believe id be better off selling them whole ..could i also include cell phone plastic,i reckon just let me no what kinda plastic i can include,and if all colors can be mixed.the reason im asking is that if im going to drive up there when i get a truck load ill go ahead and fill a horse trailor with plastic and bring it heck it may cover gas for the trip...and once again another big thank you to the members of this site,also i didnt see a low grade board price as im new to this i may get some boards mixed up and was wondering if you buy the tv,dvd player and radio boards also

one more thing i have several pcu,s they say,intel i486 dx2 there ceramic on one side and other side has gold pins and a square of gold plate, are these the higher priced ones ive saw on your list what confuses me is mine dont say intel pentium they just say intel im not sure the difference hate to bother you with newb questions but any advice will be greatly appreciated
