wow, 24 pounds of end connectors, mostly VGA from what I see, sold for $71 bucks.... I've just been scrapping my end connectors with my copper wire to the local salvage yard. Maybe I'll cut the ends off and stick them up on ebay.... heck I'll cut the IDE connectors and floppy connectors off too and sell them on ebay....
anyone have a rough guess as to how much gold there would be in these connectors? Salvage cost would be about $2 pound, so that even only brings the reasonable price for 24 pounds of connectors up to $50... and that's if youget copper scrap price...
interesting what folks will buy on ebay isn't it?
