I would second that ... it's not really clear what the OP is looking for.

In regard to scammers and whatnot ... there might be more to the story. It's well above my pay grade, but from what i understand, traveling scrap brokers customarily act as the facilitator between the scrap yards and the buyer with transactions of this size.



Question is .... will the buyer be able to stand and deliver on his part of the bargain when the time comes ?

It is a proposed startup. More often than not ... these things go sideways within a year or two. It's especially so when someone is diving headlong into something that he really doesn't know all that much about. There's no time for learning. You either know what you're doing and hit the ground running or stumble and fall on your face.

With all due respect ... if you have to ask ?

Maybe it would be better to do the startup on a small scale as proof of concept and patiently build the business over a number of years ?
