keep the Meta 4 modules seperate, then right click > select all > reprocess. :)

Get a feel for which ones are worth something and sell them, melt down the rest. For me the line is right around 100k; less than that and it goes in the pile.

use EVE Refinery to sort modules to the ones worth selling and the ones worth melting down.

Since grinding up to Scrapmetal Processing IV, I have been making a fortune reprocessing the items I loot from ships. I actually prefer to run Level 3 missions because of the loot (BS rats have none to speak of)... I know this is actually not the best way to make ISK but it's a lot more fun for me.

I run Level 3's, rat and scan down whatever plexes may exist in system. Have made a pretty good business for myself.

FWIW, the Serpentis Bronze Tags found in 0.5 system rats are worth 1.3 million each.

Angel tags from Minmatar space pretty much suck.


As for deciding which items to reprocess, I think any of the tools talked about here work just fine. I have made my own spreadsheet which compares the market price of an item to it's net reprocessing value. The biggest challenge is making sure I have maxed standings out with the NPC corps I am using for reprocessing. I find the magic number to be about 6.75... don't know what the official standings level needs to be to not incur a refining tax but I do know that it is somewhere between 5 and 8....

Pretty much what all of the above have posted.

However, I usually keep the meta lv 3 and meta lv 4 items, sell off the major lower meta lv modules such as ab's, mwd's, armor plate, shield, repair mods, etc. usually it's all med and large modules. Then I'll reprocess everything else.

And yes, high corp standing and the Scrapmetal Processing skill helps a lot for gaining max return.
