I am asking this to figure out a general price that I could pay folks for "stuff" and still have a few $ left over.



Items would include, but not limited to:
Desktops, laptops, cell phones, smart devices, VCRs / DVD / Blue Ray, Flat screen, other general electronics, and E-Waste in general.

Thank you very much.
Shipping is minimal, labor depends on how you value your time, and storage is in my own apartment, so free.

As for prices, if we're talking scrap value only. Then for a desktop I would pay $5 or less, a laptop about $1, and the rest I wouldn't pay anything. Some people buy cellphones by the pound, but unless it's a huge amount it will be worth very little.
