Eproms/IC chips

Never take the chips off any board other than low grade. It realy depends on your buyer, some say leave all chips on the boards, some say take the chips that plug into a socket off. To be safe only take the chips off low grade boards.

i i always pull socketed ics from all of the boards, i dont take the time to remove them from low grade but will look into it

I just don't get it really. Most boards are in the $4 a pound range, and I'm thinking these chips are in the $5lb range. Why would you bother pulling so many chips for $1lb?

On another note, the window chips, are the ones that don't show gold still only in the $5lb grade ?

Bear, if you read the other post, only take the chips off of low grade (brown) boards. Leave the ic chips on any other board unless your buyer says it's ok to take them off. jghilino, If you can get 10.00# for scrap ic chips, I have about 8# that I will sell you for 7.00#. Send me a pm with contact info. and I'll also pay the shipping.
