does trimming the gold leads on the motherboards devalue them?

    The jumpers i have seen sold have brought a fair price on ebay like 5 cents each or 100 for $5, i have about 1/2 pound of them in a zip lock bag. Some buyers are alot more picky on there guidelines than other buyers. If your buyer says you cant remove (any gold) even stuff that's not physically attached like jumpers that crosses the line in my opinion. I do admit ive pulled some attached stuff off motherboards and still sold them for full price, but the buyer has the right to inspect and downgrade, ive never had any boards downgraded. just throwing my 2 cents out there waiting for the criticism comments to roll in lol
