    Low grade boards can be green too, and a lot of the time the opposite side of the components has a green solder mask. It's what is on them that counts.

I think from this picture (assuming it is a true representation of all the material) It appears that about 75-80% are brown low grades and about 20% green.
    The green boards I seen look to be TV boards, they probably have another color on the other side,(brown/tan) I'm not seeing any m'boards in that mix.

    OK Well thanks for all the informative posts. This is a great site. I will buy these as though they are all low grade and just smile if I find anything different when i separate before I sell them

    I dont know. They may just be buying the cards by themselves. I dont think they are getting full TV's then stripping, but could be wrong.

    Hah! If you think saying if you got these in Orlando or not is giving up your leads then make sure to wear a tinfoil hat and remove your license plate while out scrapping. Have fun!

    Just playing devils advocate.....why do you need to know where he got the boards from? I think his response was appropriate.
