Sixnet Equipment anyone?

[Capteo]

Anyone ever have experience tearing down Sixnet communications equipment?

This is what I'm looking at.

Gaylord Of Northern Telecom Multi Line Phones.

My local auction house is gonna be auctioning a huge load of this type of equipment in the coming weeks and I'm not having much luck on Google finding photos of one of these disassembled.
Obviously I'm not looking to pay an arm and a leg for one of these lots, but some stuff at auction goes dirt cheap, so I am not opposed to taking a chance.

the insides.

I counted 47 phones in the box figuring another layer.
Let's say 100 phone units. Each having a circuit board and silver # pad. All old units I've destroyed had silver and a couple few had gold fingers.
Guessing $.05/ silver #pad.
$5.00
Now maybe $10 total PM value on boards. (low guess for all)
No more then $20 I'd pay for the phones.

There's alot of screws just to get inside them all.
The other stuff?
Gues on maybe $.15 each unit.

I'm very cheap because of the labor involved and my auctions I get stuff that cheap.

Good luck

I got a bunch of Nortel phones last year and the larger ones that were probable for receptionists had ceramic chips with gold top, roughly an inch square.

You never know what you might find!
