    I am not one to speak ill of a company unfounded or at all even if founded. I am going to say what follows as something everyone who is or might consider in the future- dealing with Sipi needs to hear.

    First, they are slick, they make promises and so on, but having dealt with them myself as an independent company and again with Mudlucky, you would be MUCH better served to not deal with them. They were short on gold and copper. I would have to look but on known quantity material we had processed elsewhere before they were radically off, down more than 30%, on hard drive boards they were down AT LEAST 25%...below that of nearly all buyers here at the time...



    I was upset enough with the known quantity disparity that I wanted to call the Sheriff's department and get a criminal case going. Now I realize they don't have representation on this forum so what I say will likely never get an answer or rebuttal but here is part two. I hand delivered in 2014 a FULL truckload of midgrade and higher material, as in every ounce I could carry on a pickup both inside and out. I was NEVER paid, they stopped responding to my emails, hung up on me over and over until it came down to either I go back there to meet them in person and likely be kicked off the premises or let it go. My time these days is obviously better spent elsewhere so they won that one.

    A while later they came to us with new sales people, talking about new management and so forth, ultimately we were underpaid, though paid promptly...except when questioned they went back and made "adjustments" to our results. I know absolutely we were screwed...a real result has no adjustment.

    DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES DO BUSINESS WITH SIPI. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
    WI ITAD LLC, IT Liquidation Services, we remarket, buy and sell scrap electronics No customer too large or small!

    To any who read this thread NOW or in the future- You don't get much more blunt of an honest review than what armygreywolf just gave you. I personally only have my experience from the call side- this man LIVED through the experience.. and is kind enough to tell you his tale.

    Thank you AGW.. I hope that your standing and earned respect on this forum will cure anyone who comes to this thread of their "gold fever"
    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!
