electrically impaired

a few questions for you guys.....first off how do i distinguish the different grade circuit boards?? i just scrapped a dvd player and there was a gold board with the coper wound deals on it, and a few (i assume low grade) green boards. my question is, do you guys pull of the copper wound things and sell them as copper bearing motors or is it worth more to leave them on and sell the circuit boards?? also, ive heard the green low grade boards will sell for shred price, so should i just throw em in with my shred?? right now i have three piles, wire, stripped copper, and all circuit boards (green and ones like the gold one i described) / little copper bearing motors. thanks!! love this site!! scrap on!!

Read, Read, Read,,,,go back thru to the older stuff. Prices may change depending on the market but the technique remains the same.

ok thanks! I love this site:)

the low grade is usually brown on one side, double green is med.-low up to med.-hi and then motherboard/telecom/server grade.
