    good advice above...but it IS pretty simple (this guy just wants money TODAY). You can get FAR FAR more money in many cases selling to the proper people...the scrapyard is the LAST place to send something and generally the lowest value you will get. You just have to decide if the effort to market the item otherwise equates to enough extra money for that effort. Has to match or exceed what you want to make per hour of work. The other thing is can you store it or sit on it for a small amount of time (a month or 2 makes sens in most cases).



    I can tell you what I do...I sell EVERYTHING that makes sens online and some things locally (heavier items). I can afford to make a few phone calls before I go to the yard LOL. I can also tell you I make SIGNIFICANT amount of money reselling vs scrapping...just sayin'.

    PROFIT is made when you BUY/ACQUIRE NOT when you sell
