They are transformers. Removing them won't make the board classify any better, it would still be a low grade board. Find a local yard that will pay for copper bearing material, or drop off at Boardsort in person. not worth the cost to ship.

Which part is not worth ship? If it doesn't help to keep it on I will obviously take it locally.

In my opinion, anything that sells for less than $2/lb is not worth the price of shipping. The brown board is low grade, the green board is at least high grade peripheral.

That connector doesn't make a difference in the grade, what had me thinking this could be higher was the gold tab BGA

BGA? Would that be under that square black chip? You know it's gold b/c the tab?

gold tab is the black flat chip with the gold color stripe on the corner on the green board. Brown/low grade will always lose at least 60 cents per pound if shipped, no matter how heavy or how light, unless you
find a low grade board with a gold capped chip . However, if you have enough boards to dropoff in person at Boardsort along with better grade material, you can pay for the fuel costs/ I have had massive power supply/low grade boards weighing 15 pounds with several transformers and large heavy aluminum heat sinksorking those for tan he aluminum and copper would have not paid any or much more than Boardsort paid for the whole board as is. In these cases, it it time versus money
