I took apart over 150+ cisco phones and saved the screens. I also have some screens from cell phones as well. Are they worth anything or should I just toss em?

Thanks in advance,
Jon

Boardsort does not buy them.
However
There’s rather large markets for both scrap and resale.
I no longer make recommendations on companies to use but there are literally thousands.
If the screens are 100% intact, meaning cut loose at the wires, not from the glass, stuff like the Cisco office phones will run in the $5 area working. About a quarter each as scrap.
Try google or bing for
Buy used lcd or sell used lcd etc.

Please don’t simply pitch them in the waste stream. There a bunch of toxic stuff in all screens.
Worst case post them on ebay for $0.99 and charge for shipping. Some scrapper will come along and buy them eventually.

Looking at the top screen it looks like you did it correctly and kept the wire contacts intact

If you don’t mind waiting ebay really does work for junk.
I had a good till cancelled auction posted for 9 months. Every few weeks I’d re-weigh the bin and adjust my “over xx pounds” and my shipping price as I added more broken screens to it. Finally sold 40 pounds for $9.99. So I didn’t loose anything on it.
