Has anyone shipped in "Mixed Wire"? I want to know whether I will be downgraded for sorting out some of the #2 wire from the power supplies, etc then ship in all of the computer wire as "Mixed Wire".

Thanks in advance!

I wouldn't ship wire. It pays 50 cents per pound and the shipping will be higher than that. It you are driving to Boardsort's facility then I would take it with me along my other boards.

If you are far from Boardsort, talk to your local yard and see what makes more sense.

Thanks for the reply, 602bridgeway.

I crunched the numbers and at $0.20 /lb to ship, it still pays more than any yard near me. Plus, I believe I can get shipping down to $0.16/lb with the appropriate packaging method.

Can gold fingers be mixed, memory and video cards?

I would say no because they are different payout rates.

.16 per pound is nice.
