    I gave you two leads........Ebay and buyers on the forum.........All you have to do is email some pics to your favorite buyer and they should give you a quote.........Check with jghilino......He messes with some of that oddball stuff

    I'm wondering how much better than a buck a lb he's expecting? A lb of these boards can only have like two ounces of copper.

    Those look like they might do better marketed to hobbyists. Surely it would take quite a few to make a lb. I would put them in half pound lots (what would that be, maybe 10 boards?) and sell each lot on eBay for $6-$10 with free USPS 1st Class shipping. Try to list them in various quantities until you figure out the sweet spot.

    Try this classification: Electronic Component Tools | eBay

    I could be wrong, people might not want to mess around with SMD stuff at home.....but it would be worth a shot! Even selling them individually for $1.99 with free 1st class shipping would be a win...ship it for the cost of a stamp and profit $1 each on something that might be worth .10¢ in scrap value.
