Scrapped out a couple pieces of video gear work was getting rid of. Not really sure how a lot of this stuff would grade.

I'll put numbers before each board, as I can never keep track of what other people have posted in their own threads as I read down to the responses.

These first two slot cards have nothing soldered on the back of them, so I didn't bother with pictures.

These next two cards have a lot more going on, so they're setup as front then back. The pins on the end of the card look almost like they're tarnished silver, not sure if that makes any difference.

This first one has what looks like old style ram soldered right to the board.

And this one has pretty long gold plated pins where it plugged into the card above.

This one has the same silver (?) pins on the outside but a bit more small ic's and tantalums on it. Should I cut the wires off the back before sending them in?

Here's a close up of the silver (?) pins from the above boards.

This last board is the one that had the most going on of all of them.

The small riser board on it can easily be popped out as it is held in by gold pins as such:

Not sure what to do with the little riser board.

Thanks in advance for anyone who takes the time to look at this stuff.

*Eugh, posted all my images wrong, lemme fix this.

sigma electronics is ringing a bell for some reason... take a look on ebay and search some model numbers... those might be worth more if they are working.

otherwise i think most of them are going to go as peripheral... the second to last card should be good enough for gold finger.

Sigma, I'd sort that and send it to boardsort separately.
They're know for higher than average gold content. In fact higher than average everything.
If any of it works try Ebay. For the rest, some of that should be scanned as there's some 'peripheral' boards in there I've had go telco do to the heavy pm content.

Remove those wires and sell them local. That's nickel shielded gold wires. Or $3.20-$3.60 /lb this morning
