Just wanted to put my 2 cents worth up here. Made a nice 2 hour trip down there, and was more than happy with the way things panned out. Was more than helpful prior to me going down there with any questions I had.
Now I'm just looking at turning this into a regular gig, as that was just a test run to get some cost numbers and see if it was worth it.
YES, Go get 'em Dunemaul! $6/lb no batteries no backs!

I have 232 sheets of keyboard Mylar. I pulled these from about 116 Desktop Keyboards. Would you buy these?

I just finished my second deal with Jack. Very good to work with. Always available by phone or e-mail. I get a detailed spreadsheet back with everything itemized out and it is spot on.

Dunemaul, check "brick cell" on eBay (or actual make and model). Some are going for good money. I opened one and found some cool gold chips.

These forums have brought all the people that dont mind helping the little guy make his money and learn new ways to do it. Im stoked.

Recent transaction with Relectrocycle was a pleasant experience. Jack, is extremely speedy when responding to email questions and willing to look at your pictures and offer you strategies to maximize your scrap value. The free shipping is very cool for those like me who hate dealing with logistics. I would recommend this company to others and look forward to future business. Thanks Jack!

A little confused J. If you live in Va, why would you send your stuff to Fl when there are buyers in Indiana and Ohio that pay more ? Am I missing something ?

Thanks for posting your latest prices Jack. I'm curious to know why you're prices are so much lower than our other buyers ? I wish they were more comparable because I'm driving distance to you. Even with the shipping costs factored in, I'll make more money shipping north. I hope I'm not being imprudent...but...inquiring minds want to know. Everyone who has posted has enjoyed doing business with you and I hope to bring a load of heavy stuff one day.

I think a lot of it has to do with region. Being based in Florida does not place him in close proximity to the processor/refiners whereas the buyers out in the midwest are located close them. The cost of freight and other overhead expenses has risen sharply since the new year. Some buyers choose to run on microthin margins that leave them on the verge of collapse when gold drops 50 points. Another word of caution about some of the buyers with very high pricing is that much of the material ends up being exported and processed in ways that are illegal here in the US. All I am saying is do your homework. Jack is a great guy to deal with and is allowed to set his pricing anyway necessary to fit his business model. People on here complain about wanting top dollar for 25lbs of motherboard should come to the northeast region where it seems most yards pay 1.25/lb.
Some great points here about margins, expenses, regions, and reputation.
