Salvage question

Do you have a technical question that doesn't really fit a specific console? Want some general info on electronics, hacking, making cookies, etc? Here's the place to ask! Go nuts.

Salvage question

Post by dave911 »

I hope this is in the right spot, I have a bunch of electronics siting around old desktops, routers, phones, cell phones, printers, monitors, systems ect.

What do people usualy salvage off of these? I'm curious because If I can't use them for anything I need I my as well sell them off.

Thanks

I take the ports, capacitors, resistors, LEDs, wire, PCI cards, speakers, microphones, buttons, membranes, interesting looking bits, anything really.
