It would be cool if it had some sort of exchange for the individual parts after tear down. For instance I have an old smart phone with a broken lcd, but I'm sure the other parts are working. If I could use this site to document the teardown and sell or trade the individual components afterward for something I need on current project, that'd be epic.

That's a great idea. Fulfillment could be a problem, but maybe we could just connect people who have parts with those who need them? The best we do currently is create Octopart links for hover-over notes that are marked as components.
