$$$ Buying Electronic precious metal scrap! $$$ - Page 4

I just completed my first selling of escrap. From all the comments and post on the boards I was trying to choose between easy and ewasted. I went with ewasted due to lower shipping cost for me. This was me paying the shipping and not them. I can say ewasted answered all of my PMs and emails quickly and with no sarcasm in the replies. I know some of my questions were very noobish. I sent in a 31lbs box, with a mix load of mother boards, RAM, finger boards, and cell phones. The received my package, processed it, and cut a check on the 25th. The money came in the mail yesterday. So made $147.26 minus the 19.98 it cost me to ship is still $127. This shipment didn't inclue the CPUs, CD roms, or power supplies. Trying to figure out best way to sell that stuff since none of the local yards will buy it.



Thanks eWasted - I'll be hitting you up again to price some pay phone boards I have.

Ewasted: Are optical drive boards classified as mixed motherboard grade?

Yes boards from cd/dvd are mixed mobo grade. But check with Ewasted to be sure. He mentioned something about tweaking the price on them./

I can vouch he buys lion batteries at 1.05 a lb. Been sending a few here and there in last few weeks.

i got a question i do not think has been asked yet, on motherboards a dual socket server motherboard is worth more than a standard motherboard of the same style, but what about the "transition" boards from the Pentium 3 era that had a slot CPU socket as well as a standard PGA370 socket, would that qualify as a dual socket motherboard as well?

Sent my first box to Ewasted today, will post results.

As I stated in a post above I shipped a box to ewasted 3:00pm wensday recieved an e-mail today. They rcieved the box, prosseced it and cut a check and put it in the mail. Greate turn around (48) hrs. A big shout out and thank you to all who work for ewasted. I will be doing bussness with ewasted in the future.

Ewasted do you ever come to Houston or have any guys here in Houston that I can sell my escrap to? If not i will ship it, need to clean out my garage
Not sure about sorting the lowgrade, midgrade boards though. Will you beable to do all of that?

sent in a box of hd boards and a few mixed boards on thursday will see what happens looking forward to a great buyer thank you

Wish I lived nearby. Would make things easier!

I shipped 60 lbs of HD boards, gold fingers, and memory last Friday. I used the FedEx return label from Ewasted's site (which came in at around $33 vs $48 if I sent through FedEx). The package arrived on Tuesday, processed it by Wednesday, check was cut Thursday afternoon. I sent Ewasted a pm about an issue of quoted vs paid price on the gold fingers (difference was $3). He called me Friday morning and said the paper check was going out at 9am, but asked if I wanted to do an ACH direct deposit to my account and he would add the $3 to it. I should have said yes not for the $3 but because the check is going to a PO box about 100 miles away near my fiancee and I won't get it until next Friday.

Anyway, so far the process has been a great experience. Always best when I have the $$$ in hand. I will definitely use Ewasted for most of my escrap.
