$$$ Buying Electronic precious metal scrap! $$$ - Page 94

I have used ewasted many times in the past, and continue to use in the future. Hell, I just had a package received on Monday. It's Friday. My package has not be processed yet, but I'mma not about to get on here and raise hell, or bash.
Any issue I've had has been fixed quickly. Very trustworthy business. No need to test the water.
Great job. Mario and staff


By the way, his perferred contact method is email or his site, not SMF......

$0.40 Li Ion Rechargeable - Non Laptop and Cell (Exposed terminals MUST be taped)(No ECIG or Lithium Compound batteries!) I wondered what type of batteries were in the e cigs. I will add these to the pile of NiCad, NiMh and Lithium button batteries that I take to Lowes to recycle every so often.

Well you just received an other shipment and came here to post about it. I ran into all of this. I just want to say E-Wasted you handled this situation a lot better then I would have. My next mission is to try and shove 6 1/2 lbs of RAM into a Flat Rate Envelope, slap it on Ebay for $20 a lbs if it doesn't sell ship
it to E-wasted.

Ok so here is another great experience from E-Wasted:
I noticed a typo in the price, so I emailed him on his website and this forum. That same day he contacted me not just through my email but here in private message. Not only that a couple days later he contacted my to ensure the problem was taken care of. He treated me like the value of the mistake was hundreds of dollars but in reality it was $13 and some change. Mario great customer service as always. Thanks for another great experience.

I'm not sure if I'm posting this question in the right place. Apologies in advance if not. Does anyone find a particular weight to be the most cost effective when sending in boards etc? For example would you ship 20 pounds of laptop boards to ewasted or would you wait till 50 or even bundle various items and send by freight? I appreciate anyone's input

Freight is by far the most cost effective. Frieght makes power boards worth shipping depending on what your local yard pays for breakage.

Freight! The best thing is to get a pallet, a mellon fruit box and send it.

Are yall backed up? Pallet has been there since last week tuesday and still not processed. I was told by Kitty on the chat that my pallet was next in line as of last friday 12/1 and it would be done early this week. Ive sent a email and no reply. Its just boards and CPUs, no LCDs or laptops. Need some christmas cash.

I emailed early today due to the online chat being offline every time I checked it today. Not trying to be a pain, just surprised. Its usually 2-3 days and settlement is issued on non-laptop/LCD shipments.

No worries. Im working on the next load this week.

Recieved my settlement sheet just now. Thanks

Another stellar review for Ewasted's operation. Turnover took a little while but that was partly my fault (I urge anyone here with more than a FedEx box's worth of stuff to avoid shipping around the holidays-the queues are just jammed). But the other part was caused by transport, who simply "lost" a quarter of my load and never bothered to tell me. Ewasted helped me talk with the truckers (whose reply was basically "Derp") and then was gracious enough to assist me in dealing with the lost value from the shipment when it was too late to get a claim together. Absolutely a great transaction.

There are a lot of times in this business when I am struck by the thought, "I really have no idea where this is going, who is receiving it, or how they are processing what I send." In some ways, every time I ship, I am taking an awkwardly calculated risk, as does the receiver, who has to deal with the wild variety of stuff I pack into my gaylords and parcels. With no guarantees for either side, it can feel like an uneasy moment, one that sometimes lasts for days or even weeks. I can say, happily, I have yet to be a part of a single unpleasant, let alone unfair, transaction with any buyer/service provider on SMF and it's times like this one with CFCS that really make me appreciate being able to count on them.

I had a similar problem with a shipment a couple years ago. Not 4 of the 5 boxes were received. I had talked with ewasted a couple times, and was ready to count it as a loss. I knew what was missing after comparing my packing list to what was received. About the same time as they sent me the email saying that they had processed my lot, I got another email saying my package had arrived. Somehow it showed up a week later. Maybe your other box will appear as mine did. CFCS is an awesome business with awesome people and an awesome owner.

Funny story, it just showed up in Ohio!

I also want to say Thank You to the folks at Ewasted! Since my scrap focus had to change a while back, I was on unfamiliar ground and had multiple questions every day. My questions were always answered in short order and I was treated with respect. My first shipment went through very quick and I was paid according to the pricing and grades that I had gotten in my emails even though they were looking at photos and more or less guessing as to what I really had. Great payment and quick turnaround.

The second shipment was right through the holidays so it took a bit longer to turn around but they have often said that the end of the year is especially busy for them. Everything went very well for this shipment as well. I am currently working on the next shipment and look forward to working with Ewasted for a long time to come!
