    Selling some nice vintage gold trace boards on ebay

    These are from 60s and 70s electrical test equipment, mostly oscilloscopes that I just tore down while thinning out my stack of interesting stuff in the shop.

    Not sure if they will bring in this much, but it doesn't hurt to try. They sure are nice looking and I'm keeping a few for my collection.

    Make sure you ship with signature confirmation ... a while ago another member of this forums lost over $800 worth of scrap from a "I didn't get it" scammer.

    hope it brings the money...

    I scrapped a couple old O-scopes, first one I didn't realize was gold. the last one, I let the board sat outside over the winter with some other low grade stuff and the coating came off. was like Christmas when I went to get back to scrapping and pulled it out of the wheelbarrow and saw all the gold!

    the good scopes from HP and commercial labs seem to have the high grade stuff,,,

    Well, I didn't get the $100 but did get some offers. I just didn't have a Buy It Now on the last auction. Since there were over 200 page views I decided to make it interesting and relist at half the price. That should get the bidding going.
