I have two boards that I am questionable about their grade. I have previously sold this type of board to boardsort.com and they gave me peripheral grade. One board is from a router/modem and I'm not sure about the other. They both have a gold cornered chip on them. One has RCA and coaxial plugs on it, and the other has an Ethernet plug and a tiny transformer on it. I know that if I remove certain things, I can up the value, as well as drop it. Should I bother removing this other junk and leave only the gold chip and other IC's and call it high-grade? Or should I just leave it all on and call it peripheral? Thanks for the assistance!
