Welcome to Boardsort™ - Learn - Sell - Profit -

Good day, I have a huge stack of 2 ft by 2 ft telecom boards absolutely loaded with IC chips, however they also have very large gold fingers on the ends, can I remove these without affecting changing the value from telecom? Your description doesn't list anything about not removing them nor including the gold finger(s) and/or pins on the edge of the boards.

Thank in advance.

You should be able to remove the fingers without downgrading the board, but based on the photos, it appears that a backplane sockets into these boards. Removing them will reduce the weight and the portion that you remove will likely be purchased as a cable end, which is much less than gold fingers. I would leave them as is for maximum profit.
