    Telecom Boards

    These are typical boards I come across,They are telecom units. my question is what would they be graded as?



    Thanks!




    OK, so I just opened up a phone and pulled the board as pictured below. I just tossed (e-cycled) about 100 of the phones. Please tell me they are junk and that's not gold circuitry

    It looks like gold circuitry and if it was sent to me I would have it tested for sure but I am pretty sure he has a test kit and will find out and pay you per the value of the board.

    If that is gold lining on the back it would push the value up.
