    i was trying to haul a junk diesel generator to my local yard one time. before i picked it up i talked to the woman who ran operations in the office to see if i could get a little bit extra $ for it since it had soo much copper in it she said no.. so i ended up cutting the whole thing up seperating the copper myself from the motor took everything to a different yard made about 500$ more with 2 days work then i wouldve by dropping it there.
    if they had just worked with me a little bit they couldve made more on it and saved me a little work
    they are also very sloppy with there operations the guy that runs the scales on saturdays doesnt know how to do math i know many people have walked out of there with more $ then they shouldve. he paid me 50 extra once and i was dumb enough to give it back to him
