    I'd pay them .12-.18/lb. They look to me like a medium grade, but I'm not a grading expert. Ask a buyer but if you cleaned them of the screen, and plastic pieces I think you would get more.

    That's a lot of board given the small amount of IC's. Unless there's something under the plastic, I don't think my buyer would pay anything more than low grade for them. If that's the case for your buyer I wouldn't even bother with cleaning them.

    i have sold similar items for around .45 as midgrade. If you have to mail a sample in to get a accurate quote.

    I'd agree with everyone else, low to medium grade and I'd add my opinion and say more on the lower end, just not a lot going on for the size of the board. A buyer would be paying for mostly board. But hey, if you get them cheap enough, money is money.

    if you find out they look like Great donor boards Plus it looks to be for a newer type of car you can separate them on ebay.and make a few more bucks over time.

    The reason why they are getting thrown out is because they are junk.

    I would do more research and maybe contact GM, but these will more then likely have better then scrap value. As an ex-GM mechanic, I replaced hundreds of these and I know they are not cheap.

    I've sold several of these clusters on eBay maybe not the exact make and model but I would be willing to bet that even if they don't work they would probably sell for at least 15 bucks a piece but that's a random guess could be more or less so do your research.
