I haven't heard of an electronics junkyard either (I'm american), but I can think of a close equivalent which might count - RePC. They're a state approved electronics recycling center (I've taken CRTs I no longer wanted down there), but they also keep bins and asiles of old / used hard drives, cables, etc. in stock. Very retro - it wasn't that long ago I went down there to pick up a replacement 80x25 monochrome tty terminal for an aging point of sales system, not much younger than I am.

I wasn't really talking about electronics junkyard. Screws are generally made out of metal. But the reason electronics junkyards don't exist in most places in America or Europe is because almost everything gets sent to China. There are some pretty big piles there. http://content.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1870485,00.html http://content.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1870485...
