    MB Low grade?

    The place I was taking my motherboards to did not care colored or green. The place closed so I need to find a new place.
    There is a place that has really good prices but they seem to have weird definition of "colored" boards.
    To them if the connectors on back are colored then it is a low grade board.
    They sent the pic below to me as an example of low grade MB.
    What would you call the board below?

    ^ i agree...but my place is like yours ron, as long as most of mine are green they dont care and pay the same, small or large socket.

    Yep looks like a 478 socket or small socket, and the color is green like the color of the money they are highjacking from your wallet!

    Looks like I might have to have 3 piles.
    Large Socket, Colored, and Small socket green
    Then take first two to the yard. Then ship last pile to ewated.
    I will have to make sure he will pay that if they are all small socket green. He sayes mixed so maybe not.

    Why would you not just ship it all to him.........After shipping his prices have to be better than a scrap yard

    The place I can go to has price equal to his. And no shipping so it is even better.

    Talked to Ewasted no big surpise but he does not want load of just Small Socket Green boards to be paid at the Green board rate.
    We did come to an agreement as to what he will take & pay. Now I just need to see if it makes sence when I take shipping into count.
