I have 4 pc chips that appear to do well on ebay. However, is it a good idea to sell them individually or grouped together?
Okay, so apparently now IC Chips are valuable too. But how the heck do you remove them? Is there a simple process? If not, I am not going to bother and just take that small loss.
George...Do you pay attention to anything that goes on around here?
LOL KZ Im seriously wondering these days.Quote:

I always look forward to your comments KZBell. Thanks for not letting me down!Quote:

I am referring to these types of "IC Chips" perhaps are definitions are different, but these are what I am referring to.
On your top picture you can take a wood chisel and get under it but don't break the black top off. On the bottom picture you can use the corner of the chisel or a utility knife and score the les and it should pop off.
Agreed you would think with a join date of sep 2011 and close to 2000 posts you would pick up on things.Quote:

You commented recently it was just easier for you to start a new thread and ask a simple question, then to do some research. Well it's one thing for a noob to do that while they are getting started but come on...we expect a little more effort out of someone that owns so many businesses.
My apologies for not having as much education in the world of electronics/technology that you have.Quote:

You dont like the posts, there is a report button.
I asked a simple question. If you can provide an answer, great, if not, then don't, etc.
Thanks Dunemaul for trying to help and answer my question. Apparently this is causing everyone to get their feathers in a fluff, so I am not going to worry about it. Not that important.Quote:

George no offense but you ask a lot of newbie questions..........My suggestion is find one of everything (EVEN IF YOU HAVE TO BUY IT) and take it apart and sell it.........Figure out what it's worth, if it's worth breaking down, and how much to pay again.....Monday I'm picking up four old gas pumps (Not antique or anything) I payed $80 bucks for.......To me $80 is worth the price of admision and I will know exactly what they are worth......I wish you all the best but I knew the feedback your getting was coming sooner than later..........Oh well to answer your question I don't ever remove those chips but some people sware by it
I think no matter how much is written it just doesn't sink in for me, but show me, just once, maybe twice, and i'll master it.
so I guess doing at least one of everything will give me just what I want to learn.
although I don't think i'll ever find an erotic vibrator out on hard rubbish day, and I do want to scrap one,
so there will still be newbie questions as there must be someone here that scrapped one?
But yeah, i'm holding at least one of everything, and some things different brands/models.
LOL buy a couple storage units and I garuntee you will find what your looking for in the BUZZ department :)Quote:
