I take the heatsinks, transformers and copper / aluminium coils, wire off. Put any plastic covered transformers, copper coils in the freezer, it makes the plastic brittle and easier to smash up.

Thank you! I just did my first board tonight. I didn’t get a whole bunch, it was just a dish network box lol but I’m listening and learning from you! Keep the videos coming! Watching you all the way down in Alabama!

Hello, Sweden here again.
I also take off some of the gold plated material, have a buyer for that. My regular yard pays flat rate for circuitboards, the other yard takes high grade boards only if 100kg minimum.
Those white slots on the red board, they do have gold but it's very lightly plated and it's gold over nickel over bronze so it's a different process and difficult to refine at home.
Stay safe and take care.

Hey at 2:40 those plastic boxes (volt relays) are worth cracking open they have copper and sometimes gold or gold contacts

[cuetTimmonz]

I like just taking transformers apart, to get the copper. While i watch movies, etc.

[tristenbradley]

Are the silver contacts the copper colored circles inside that create the pop sound or is the silver the square guard around the button?

[Derbyhobbiescrapper]

Great help as I didn't have a clue

Just watched another vid, under the green layer on the boards are gold plating-give it a good scratch somewhere with a knife.

I have TVs, PC towers and Laptops, one scrap yard pays for laptops as of 2023 Jan $3 each if complete screen not cracked (or 25 cents a pound) , another scrap place gives me 60 cents a pound. Desktops same thing $3.50 to $5 each if includes a hard drive and memory stick. the TV boards I think were 35 cents a LB. I might start cutting the contacts off the edge, but so far I have just been scrapping them as is. Oh and TVs no one takes because of the glass, just pull the boards.

I think you gave great info but am just starting out if you could do a full detail of which is what on the boards for newbie pls I know other scrappers know what everything is but some are just learning pls

[colewyatt]

Most of those black ceramic chips have a good amount of gold in them

[eltonbrazier]

That round heat sink that you picked up has a large piece of copper inside.

I am sorting through thousands of electronics lately. I got a deal working for an elderly man and he owned his own business repairing high grade barcode scanners. I am finding a lot of high grade. At first I was taking each one apart. Then found out using a hammer is faster since Im scraping them anyways
