    What are these boards considered?

    I did a search for PCMCIA Cards and only 2 posts came up. I recently won a local auction for less than $5. It consisted of these PCMCIA cards of various makes and models. Some appeared to have plated contacts so I've taken a few apart and would like to know what these boards would be graded at.











    Sorry about the quality of some of these pics. I just got back from Hawaii where the temps were in the mid 80's, now I'm in my Garage where it's in the low 40's. I was probably shivering some.













    I'm really not interested nor have the time in trying to look all these up on Ebay to see what they might be worth individually. I also don't have a way to test them all so can't guarantee any of these work in the first place. I try not to sell anything before it's tested working condition. The boxful of 100+ PCMCIA cards weighs just over 16 lbs. Some of the casings appear to be aluminum using a magnet, some are tin. Some of the contacts and connections are plated, it appears. The list includes 28.8, 33.6, and 56k fax modem cards, Lan cards, 10/100 Cardbus, 16 bit Mobile Adapters, and more. What grade are the boards? TIA

    I may be wrong but I think if the cover is removed they fetch memory price.
