The parts inside are where the value hides.

Boards, power supplies, cards, optics and chips carry real value that a scrap dealer weighs for pennies. Whether you're stripping retired servers, clearing excess-and-obsolete inventory, or moving distributor overstock, we price by part number and pay in CAD. Here's what we buy.

Boards & power

System boards, backplanes, PSUs and chassis from servers and workstations.

Examples: Motherboards / system boards · backplanes · power supplies · chassis & caddies

Cards & adapters

Network, storage and expansion cards in volume.

Examples: NIC / SmartNIC · HBA / RAID · FC adapters · riser & expansion cards

GPUs & optics

Graphics cards and pluggable optics — high value in quantity.

Examples: Workstation & server GPUs · SFP/QSFP transceivers · DACs / AOCs

Excess & obsolete stock

Surplus inventory, de-kitted parts and obsolete components.

Examples: Distributor overstock · E&O inventory · de-kitted modules · reseller surplus
What we take

Loose parts or excess inventory.

  • Server & workstation pulls — boards, cards, PSUs and optics recovered from retired systems
  • Excess & obsolete stock — distributor and reseller overstock, de-kitted and surplus parts
  • Matched lots — quantities of a single part number price best
  • Working or as-pulled — tested-good or untested — note it and we price to condition
A business and bulk service. Clean documentation and quantity of a single part number move the offer most.
How it works

Four steps, and you get paid.

1

Send your list

A spreadsheet, an inventory, or just photos. No formatting needed.

2

Get a written quote

A firm offer in CAD against your PO, priced to the live secondary market.

3

We collect

Collection arranged GTA-wide and nationwide, on a documented chain of custody.

4

You get paid

Data wiped, a certificate of destruction issued, settled in CAD.

Data security

Nothing is resold until your data is destroyed.

Most components hold no data — but any that do (drives, some cards) are sanitized to standard before resale, with the same certificate and chain of custody as the rest of our buyback.

NIST 800-88 & IEEE 2883Each drive sanitized to the standard for its media type; drives that can't be wiped are physically destroyed through a vetted partner.
Certificate of destructionPer-drive certificate and documented chain of custody — the paperwork your auditor asks for.

What drives your offer

How we price it — and how to get the best number.

Send an accurate list and you get an accurate price. What moves the offer on a components and chips is specific: the exact make, model and generation; the specification (processors, memory, capacity, ports or media); condition and completeness; the quantity and how matched the lot is; and current demand on the secondary market. Data-bearing media also has to be destroyed, which we build into the deal rather than charge for on top. The more precise your list, the sharper and faster the written CAD number comes back.

Why Maxicom

Why sellers choose Maxicom.

We pay, we don't charge

Value recovered and paid in CAD against your PO — not a disposal fee. That single difference is the whole point.

We buy at the source

Direct from businesses, decommissions and the trade — so prices are keener and stock has a known history.

Honest about data & certs

NIST 800-88 / IEEE 2883 with a certificate per drive. No R2, e-Stewards, ISO or NAID AAA badges we don't hold.

We take the whole lot

Mixed conditions, faulty units, whole estates — one deal, not cherry-picking the easy items.

We respect the trade

Resellers' and ITADs' stock moves through our network on NDA, never back into your own market.

Documented, audit-ready

A written line-item offer, chain of custody, and certificates — the paperwork your auditor and privacy officer expect.

Questions

The short answers.

What components do you buy?
Motherboards, backplanes, PSUs, chassis, NIC/HBA/RAID and expansion cards, GPUs, transceivers and DACs, plus excess-and-obsolete inventory and distributor overstock.
Do you buy excess and obsolete (E&O) stock?
Yes — surplus, de-kitted and obsolete component inventory is core supply. Send a stock list with part numbers and quantities.
How do you price components?
By part number, condition and quantity, against the current market — a written, line-item CAD offer rather than an automated instant price.
Do you buy loose or as-pulled parts?
Yes — loose pulls and boxed stock both work. Matched quantities of one part number get the sharpest offer.
Is any data on the parts destroyed?
Components generally hold no data, but any data-bearing items (drives, certain cards) are sanitized to NIST 800-88 / IEEE 2883 with a certificate before resale.
Do you buy from resellers and distributors?
Yes — the component trade is core supply. We buy E&O and client-estate parts on NDA and supply the trade in return.
How should I prepare my asset list?
However is easiest — a spreadsheet, an asset register, or clear photos. Useful details are make/model, key specs, quantity and rough condition. A rough list is enough to start; we'll ask if we need more.
Can you sign an NDA?
Yes — NDA is standard for trade, M&A and sensitive exits, and available on request for any engagement. Your sources, customers and reasons for selling stay confidential.
How and when do you pay?
In CAD against your purchase order once the equipment is collected and the data destroyed. Payment terms are confirmed in your written quote — no vague promises up front.
Do you provide a chain of custody and certificates?
Yes — a documented chain of custody from collection to settlement, and a certificate of destruction per data-bearing drive. It's the record auditors and privacy officers ask for.
