    grade this board please

    Ok im pretty certian this is server grade since it came out of a server. But I could be wrong seeing that it has no IC chips on it. This is the backing board of a server that all the other boards plug into. It has several thousand gold pins. So all you ewaste buyers out there confirm or correct me if im wrong please.




    here is a closeup of the pins inside the white channels

    My buyer grades this as Pin Board.....If I remember correctly it was going for about $7.00 a pound last time I had one similar. From what I understand this is one of the higher grades of pin boards. They come in several different grades depending on how much clutter is present on the board itself. This one looks to be really clean.

    computer scrapper is right but you need a few to get the higher price. Don't think if you send one or two in you will get top dollar but is one of those things you just stack up and save up for when gold is up.

    Right now the going rate on them is around $4 to $5ish based on buyers and how how many pounds you have on hand.
