Can someone tell me what a decent price for 35 ceramic AMD K6/K6-2 CPUs would be.

Seller's ad says "There is a good mixture of speeds from 166 to 500 MHz. Many of these CPUs require a core voltage of 2.2V, which is too low for most older socket 7 motherboards"

Ya that what I was thinking with the one as it is chipped quite bad. I'm bidding on them to add them to my collection and just wanted to know what I should set my high bid around. Thanks.

I think the price for 35pc lot will be lower. There were a few lots with K6 / K6-2 processors sold, and they went for $2 - $2.50 per chip:

Well, I won it for $87! after shipping is included, works out to about $3.03 per chip.

Free chips are still around...
Try to find out were people in your area discard old computers/electronic equipment and see if you can salvage stuff from there.
Let us know if you have any success.

Well I know here in Stony Plain there is a place where you drop off your recycling such as paper, cardboard, etc and they also have a shipping container for the Eco waste. I would check there, but I do believe you are not aloud to take stuff from it once it has been dropped off which kinda of sucks as I have seen computers there once or twice.
