Thank you for all the nice answers even when this is something you dont talk about on this forum

I do understand "the less people know the better", just thought after all this years there would be a "leaked" list or more info.

Lets hope nobody outbids me on the deal im bidding on then i bought 26 complete desktops (big towers) for 2,60€ each as my first lot.

In the meanwhile i will read some more on this forum.

Photos are nice in case you do win the auction. IF you have not considered it think about re-selling complete computers or working parts. The re-selling of parts is a far better return than PM recover. Mike

+1 on that

I don't have a problem getting 100.00+ after shipping for a Pentium pro system on ebay. There would have to be a LOT of gold in there to get that much refining.

Just like anything dealing in scrap, its a volume business with small margins. Get 500 computers and you may have something worth refining (with someone else who knows what they are doing). 25-50 computers + not knowing what you are doing = a sure loss.
