Have a lot of USB ends. Are they worth same as gold serial port connector ends?
most buyers have one category of gold connectors, and those should be in it.
There are some buyers that specifically pay more for certain ones, but as far as I know, those just go in the regular pile.
i dont think they worth much but still you can try. all the best
Around a buck a lb, back a ways was going for 2.00
Any pics of the different types ? I been wondering the same things. Plus. What about the gold plug type ends . Looks L shaped and plug in like cable wire ends.
Also gold color washers, bolts and screws. Gold plated ? Same bucket ?
decorative gold plating is not as thick as functional. The gold is thicker on communication plugs than on pretty audio cables.
I'll post a pic later after I clean off the ☆ TABLE☆ with the gold items I recovered this week.
Pics
Pic 2
First pic: take a magnet to the stuff. Anything magnetic=steel (shred). The rest is mostly brass, although the upper right hand corner might be a copper piece.
Second pic: Can't tell. pull one out of the bucket and take a closer photo.

Second pic looks like some gold pins attached to wires, and maybe those little red ones are gold plated...
...most everything else is in both pics is brass, and anodized metal that will stick to a magnet(this will all be shred)
None of that looks like it would be bought as gold ends by the ewaste buyers. you best bet is to double check with whatever buyer you have chosen to deal with.
Non of the items pictured stick.Second poor light. I'll retake outside and repost later . All are so shiny shiny maybe the☆☆☆☆took me over lol.
