Computer & Electronic Scrap Buyback

Sell computer scrap in Switzerland

Old hardware is not waste: circuit boards, CPUs and mainboards contain gold, silver, palladium and copper. Ecobro buys sorted computer scrap at daily per-kilo prices — instead of you disposing of it for free.

Computer scrap buyback: prices by category

The value of computer scrap depends on its precious metal content — and that varies greatly from one component to the next. Old ceramic CPUs contain considerably more gold than modern processors, and mainboards more than power supply boards. That is why Ecobro buys by category and per kilogram.

The cleaner the sorting, the higher the price: where possible, separate mainboards, CPUs, RAM and add-in cards. We also accept mixed stocks — simply describe roughly what is included.

What do we buy?
