I've sold to a few buyers on here and talked to a few more, all good experiences and nice folks.
    Thanks for that. I've done all of the things in your post multiple times before. I've already known about gold and other metal like platinum, palladium, tantalum, etc etc in the board and there being gold and silver in IC chips on low grade boards for a long time. And I have known for a while about Ewasted and Easy Recycle. They don't state anywhere about GOLD PLATED RIBBON CABLE found in printers, Hard Drives, etc. I should have clarified better in my post what I was talking about because after I read it, it sounded like I was talking about the board.
