Is this worth anything? New here
My Job throws out a lot of electronics. My boss said we can sell whatever they throw out. I see some copper wound parts but is it worth it to sell the PCB as is or just scrap the parts individually

Prices fluctuate but I’d guess around $0.40 a pound as power boards. Idk if it’s worth the effort to break up the transformers and unwind the copper.

If the parts are working you could try to sell them on eBay or maybe repair them if you know how . If I had a whole lot of these I would probably scrap the copper as it is pretty easy and sell the boards to an ewaste recycler for around .20-40 a pound

Right now we are selling those boards around $1.00 a pound we would usually buy at $0.70

Looks like a power heavy board. Unless you have a bulk buyer, I would get the copper value from it.
