SpikeTV show Scrappers

Any of you guys up in that area ever seen these guys out working? Use the same yards as them...anything???

NOOOO
It's bad enough they Ruined the Storage Auctions with there Fake Shows , now there going Scrapping m.
What's Next ?
Pooper Scoopers ? a show with Sewage Truck racing all over town to see who can collect the most ? ( Never mind , it's a Crappy Idea )
Bandit

Wait, that show's back? I remembered when it aired a couple years ago and it sucked.

I thought this type of show would come. Hope they don't inflate profits like on storage shows.

Never seen it but from the preview looked like all it did was glorified the scum of the industry and further carry the negative sterotype of scrappers

I watched one episode a couple of years ago and was really unimpressed. Looked like losers chasing their tails.

I saw a few episodes on youtube. Pretty crappy show i would say. They act very unprofessional. If I was to act like they do on pick ups, I would never get a call again for scrap.

this kind of crap pi**es me of so bad that I am at a loss for words except!@#$%^&*()(*&^%$#@!!@ !@$^&()(*&& $@#@!# &^%$$ ^&*% #$%% &^%$#&*( ^&* &^%$ %^&$!#@ @## *&$#(.
the sad part is millions watch and believe this crap, and the tragic part is that is what they think you are. it will do nothing but great harm to our industry, just like all the other reality BS. every single person on this forum should send the net work an e mail.

I too thought it was crap!! Yeah, I hate those storage auction shows as well, but scrappers could really hurt the publics view of what we do..plus all those guys seem to be complete idiots..it's only good for a laugh at most..

The one where were trying to bend the 30' pipe to fit it into their van was enough for me. It's called a sawzall. The jersey shore of the Scrappin world.

Who in their right mind would be trying to move as much scrap as they were in that van...........I saw that episode and the foreman on the job site was givin em hell......LOL

Haven't seen the show but can guarantee aint no reality involved. Those shows are scripted and filmed like a regular TV show. How bad can 'Reality' TV shows get. On the Gold Rush show up in Alaska some folks from Oregon shot a Bear in their camp after going out and getting a tag they made it look like they shot in self defense on the show. Leaving food and garbage out in a camp just invites the bears in and you should read some message boards up there natives are rooting for the bears.

I haven't seen the show yet either , but having two former neighbors who star on a storage auction show and claim they have done it for over 20 yrs. , but there previous knowledge about the business was asking Us what we were doing in our driveway , before they moved to Ca.
Speaking of Gold Rush ?
Jimmy Dorsey Never Got Paid as He didn't sign any contract ( He was on a Handshake ) So with No Contract , His Lip's Were Not Sealed
So , Heres the REAL TRUTH LOL
The Glory Hole
Ps
Don't forget the Famous River Crossing
That is a Required Fording as the Bridge won't take much weight , with a Permit needed to cross ( in Advance )

You guys are right... calling myself a "scrapper" to someone new, gives the wrong impression. They assume I smoke meth, and am dumb as hell out picking up pennies and stealing ****. I am now called A GREEN mother ****in SAVE THE WORLD RECYCLER!!

the show is fake. i saw it a few years back that's how i got into scrapping, I learned a lot and made a lot. I will be putting out a documentary about the scrap biz in NJ if your from NJ hit up up if you would like to take part. scrapmetal201@gmail.com
