    The main concern about sending for greater than scrap value is the size of the ram. By and large buyers are looking for 2gb and larger modules. What they came out of isn't so important so don't worry about that. The main thing is they are 2gb and larger (2gb server ram isn't gonna be worth much but 2gb is a good cutoff to work with). Ram is pretty hardy. As long as the gold fingers aren't scratched there is a strong chance your ram sticks will test good. I've never sent in a batch to a buyer that had even 5% test bad. Just pack them so they won't move and won't get scratched and you should be good. If the buyer is interesed in buying those ram modules with battery packs on them for greater than scrap value (if they are please share who that is so I can send them too!) then yes, leave them on.

    JJ - That's what I wanted was a cutoff threshold. When I'm ready to ship I'm sure the buyer will let me know if he is interested in the 1gb sticks but good to know for my own curiosity, thank you!
