    just want to say this

    im a small time scrapper
    and one lesson i learnt from here is to offer to pay for scrap

    generally i try not to pay or to even talk of money
    but one of the biggest jobs ive landed was through offering topay

    i paid R250 and made about R2500-in 3 days
    so thanks for the advice
    and it seems as if theres still a BIG motor to be had- the lady from the store phoned me again last week & asked how much i was prepared to pay

    i told her that i would need to factor in fuel & then would have to make a profit on top of that
    hopefully i get- looked like a lot of copper in that motor.



    it appears that some kinds of places youd be better of offering something
    and some places, you just dont talk of money- u load the stuff, ask if theres anything else they want to get rid of & drive away.
