    They were a mix of small transformers and small electric motors. none of the motors had been stripped down. As for finding a different buyer, we have 2 scrap yards here, both are a 30+min drive, next closest one is at least an hour away. I'm not really concerned about it, as i don't deal in them often, but back home we got the same price for motors, regardless of the size of them, and I don't think size matters to this yard because i asked the lady in the office, who never saw what I brought in, what they were giving for electric motors, .12 a pound she said,
