I could not answer your PM so I have to do it here. If you take the gold off you will downgrade the board and make a low-grade out of it. The gold is what their paying good money for. Your closest buyer is Easyrecycle. Look in the buyers and sellers section for him, and his thread has some info the way he likes things. There might be a buyer that pays a little more but the shipping gets to be a big factor. Here's his current price sheet. Pretty self explanatory.
