    Thanks for starting the thread. Scrapped 4 this week myself. kept the boards separate from other boards for now. Hopefully someone reading will have an idea if the boards have much value. The transformers in the power box I put in with motors, wires I toss in my insulated box, wall plug prongs in the brass.

    A pain to do a lot of at once.

    From what I've read here on the site those boards a worth it.

    I hadn't messed with phones until coming here and discovering a market.

    I'll PM you.

    Don't want to flood anybody with questions.

    If they want to throw something out that'd be on them.

    ewasted will buy those boards. If im not mistaken they are considered mid grade which I think is close to $2 a pound. I could be wrong and im sure Ill be corrected if I am.
