    if I'm not mistaken, that is fiber optic cable. I Once got quoted 0.03 for a full truckload (~40,000 lbs) for insulated fiber optic cable. Though it might be more valuable without insulation, I'm afraid if you only have what is pictured it might not fetch anything. Hope that helps.

    Wire has to attach to a board. Thats where the value will be. Kinda a tough to see on my phone.

    I agree with BC; Pins and Board if there is one. I don't know anything about this company but they do have a pin board category Buying Price for Various Gold Plated CPUs, Chips and Fingers | GoldChipBuyer Did you notify the accounting dept.?

    The yellow stuff is wire wrap wire. Used for prototyping and low volume production runs. It is an interconnect panel. Salvage the gold pin connectors. The wire you can toss in with your 35% recovery insulated wire. If there is no circuit board, all you have left is tin & or aluminum.

    Thank you Spinroch you are 100% correct, the frames are tin and aluminum frame they have a large heavy gadge copper plate in each one, they sent me over three skids of these I am thinking.15 a pound but that might change by Tomarrow I have a free hand on these as far as what I am going to pay them.

    The last time I sold "pin board" (board with just loads of gold pins) to Ewasted I believe it was around $7-8 per pound...

    I would SERIOUSLY CAUTION anyone considering using that buyer(barren realms/goldchipbuyer) do a VERY thorough search on this forum, as well as the gold refining forum.

    Other than that, you should get around 12-15.00 per pound for those pinboards.

    you can sell them whole. not sure if you would make more pulling the pins, or how much times it involves
    Currently looking for a job in or related to scrap/recycling. Relocation is possible for the right offer.
