Need advise how to get most out of these PCBs and Connectors

Hello all,

Completely new to the forum and vaery new to the world of scrapping. I've read and learned a lot from the forum so far but now I have stuff I need some advise on what to do with them. Could not post any pictures because I only have 200 bytes of quota for uploads and can not post links yet. Just copy paste the link to your browser.

These boards are form a logic controller unit and hold data connectors with relay mounts. The boards are not highly advanced but has a 4 connectors of cold pins (partially plated) and 3 serial connectors with gold pins too. I have about 200 of these boards and my question is basically should I cut the pins off them and try to sell them or refine them (not going to do it myself) or leave them on the boards and sell the boards as they are. How would these boards be graded?


Item #2. Picture can be found here farm6.staticflickr.com/5721/31386053275_91fa6386ea_b.jpg
Connectors. Gold pins again but a cast aluminum casing. Any point of separating them? Do I get the gold pin connector price for these?

How to sort these connectors?

Thanks in advance for your help

Sorry to see you haven't gotten a response yet. Perhaps you should email these pics to some of the buyers found in the buyer section.
I'm not experienced at grading boards but my guess is that first pic would be low to medium grade.
Are those connectors in the second pic aluminum? That seems that it would add a lot of weight. Again, email a buyer and they can tell you how to best process those.
Personally, I would just toss those from the third pic in either trash or shred.

Thanks, I'll do that.

2nd pic connectors I sell them as is, 3rd pic connectors go in with my copper content. If a yard wont take them as copper content then with shred

Also on the 2nd pic connectors most of the time the metal is die cast zinc not cast alum with some steel or stainless on them, but either way gold connector ends pay more per pound then all the other metals listed at this time... so it would not make sense to break them down.
