    Compressor scrap prices >

    Hi,
    I have been doing research on compressor scrap prices. I have been to LME.COM to figure out what percent of copper is present in Compressors. Accroding to my prediction its arounds .06 percent. In other words .06*lme copper price. I am new to this business can someone guide me what else to look for when buying compressor scrap.. like drained oil.. voltage does that matter . I am thinking of exporting it. Any sorth of new information would be greatly appreciated.


    Thanks for time!
