Does he take a fee for the ad or hows that work?
$35/ton here. Only thing steel is e-waste by-product or a/c unit shells.
Do yourself a favor and use a cut-off wheel and cut the wire pigtails off the power supplies. Takes literally 4 seconds, toss them in a drum and sell as wire. I give the yards nothing extra in my...
shred has been $65-80/ton here for over a yr. The only thing I take for shred are computer cases that I strip and misc junk associated with e-waste.
Just got out of the hospital with Murine Typhus, contracted from fleas probably in my yard while tearing down computers in the garage. NOT FUN!
Turns out I had Murine Typhus. 3 days in the ICU, im finally back home and somewhat normal. Spray your yards and shops for fleas and ticks folks.
Guys, make sure you stay hydrated when your outside working on stuff. I currently dealing with dehydration. Had to visit the er clinic last night for 2 bags of iv fluids. Im bed ridden per doctors...
Found another mint i5 tonight in a all-in-one computer. Thats what I enjoy about scrapping, its the "thrill of the hunt" that is fun. A mild rush I guess you could say. :)
I still cant hardly find...
Just found a i5-3570 also in mint shape! If your not looking at CPUs for more than scrap value, then you need to start. My lightbulb finally turned on with CPUs 2 days ago and im very glad it did....
Thanks. If anyone is interested in the older ceramic CPUs, the Cyrix, AMD, K5, pentium, intel, etc... for more than scrap value, feel free to message me. I sent a text to that vintage buyer in the...
Had 5 pick-ups in the last week. Found 17 old school white towers 1/2 mile from my home, killer cisco switches, piles of ram/wire/cpus, 60+ desktops, and to top it off a i7 mint condition CPU worth...
Wow, thats terrible return. Spot gold around $1300. Ive seen gold ram around $17, 160lbs should be a hell of a lot more than $1300.
Pallets normally are about 25c/lb. Its really worth it to save up and get a pallet shipment of 500lbs. Local produce manager at grocery stores normally give up watermelon boxes/bins free. Your profit...
The real hazard is the beryllium oxide that is contained in the pink ceramic in magnetrons in microwaves. Pull the wires and the transformer and rest is shred
I just wish I could figure out where the hell to find more 386/486 chips! Ive gotten 1 since I started a year ago. 10 pallets to mario and gorven and boxes of ram to PTS later, its very profitable.
Im one of maybe 3 people in a city of 1/4 million+ residents who understands and knows computer scrapping. The yards are rediculous when it comes to hard-drives without boards. The yard I take my...
nice! computer shop?
What live charts/sites are you using? I check kitco base metals daily. Alum spot is over $1.05/lb. Still only getting about 55c/lb here for 6061/6063 mix clean solids. Copper has kinda flat-lined a...
Smelters went to china due to extreme govt regulations that DID NOT make it fair to do business here in the US when under democratic policies and presidencies, that also killed manufacturing. Just...
I know my local price for aluminum extrustion was way down last week around 43c, today I called and it was at 56c. Its had some swings in my market lately. Tungsten carbide is doing very well if you...

If these were working, they would fetch $100-250ea! Ebay has sold a ton of them. Unfortunatly, mine have the white spots of death. :(
The technology in...
Its got a thick metal sandwich plate attached to it. I sent a email to mario.
I know the standard ceramic purple DLP chips got $20-30/lb, but this one I have not seen before. Any suggestions or classifications welcome.

Just gotta keep pushing. I finally just caught up on normal computer stuff and have finally gotten to and almost finished a multiple pallet lot of traffic control boxes I won at auction last spring....
