Very thorough comparison, Professor Shark!! It's always so easy just to tell someone "It's not worth the time", but to actually SHOW them why makes all the difference. And as you said, there are differences from yard to yard. I have found a place that takes low grade boards for $.38/lb. I get $.18/lb on transformers, so I don't strip the transformers from the boards anymore.

How your scrap yard categorizes things matters a ton. That wire with connectors, you called copper 2 at over $1 a pound. I just brought essentially the same thing to my scrap yard and they call it ribbon cable at 45 cents a pound with or without connectors. Connector ends and small transformers and inductors are all considered steel and they pay 6 cents a pound. So it's very much worth knowing what YOUR scrapyard categorizes it and what they pay.

I REALLY like the $/time aspect you do. This is also important to me. It is hilarious that you made more money by NOT cutting the connectors off the wire, plus you saved time.

Buddy, Thank You, I always try to be the most efficient with my time. this is exactly what I was looking for. there is always a sweet spot, where to stop, and when you have volumes of material, it makes a big difference.

This is the best scrapper channel I've found so far! Kudos! You got yourself a subscriber. I just do a little scrapping for fun, and I don't do anything on PSUs. I don't even collect them if I don't find them already dismounted from the case. Being a hobbyist makes me even more selective on what I spend my time on. The low yielding materials only make sense, if you bring significant amounts to the yard. Like >100kg. I don't want to plug my small home shop with such storage of junk.
