What is the best way to organize these various chips to send in?

From left to right, I have Motorola , then LSI, 4 random pinned cpus, gold based crystals, and a larger pile of cpus.

below these are burr brown DAC/ADCs, a single pentium and another unknown cpu.

should these be packaged and weighed separately?

I'm not 100% sure on most of the chips as they're mostly visible from only one side or I'm just not familiar with them. I'd suggest taking individual pics of fronts and backs. If you have multiple chips that are exactly the same just use one front and the other back and keep the rest out of the picture so you can group them closer together. Someone else maybe be able to recognize more readily from one side of you want to wait to do that.

Anywho...for example, the one Intel pentium, it's likely a pentium/mac ceramic (but if there's a gold cap that will be different)

Or the white ceramic IC that appears to be gold pins, if that's right it's ceramic gold pins no gold cap.


Feel free to reference the price list and cross reference any numbers on the chips with Lostinlodos' guide, granted there are some new categories in the price list that aren't in his guide.

The DAC/ADC and crystals. You best take a photo. Then send it to Chris. He'll let you know if he's buying and how to send them in. He might even quote you a price. I actually have those exact DAC/ADC. Also same with crystals. If you have other gold coated components. Do the same. I sent photos of power transistors and gold encased optical infared LEDs. Chris was interested. After all. Gold is gold.
