Key Fob Remotes save them good money!

Found a guy out of Florida that buys key fob remotes working or not!

he pays $4-5 for import fobs I assume domestic is around the same he did not give me a price on those and he pays $10-20 for smart key fob remotes. I had 23 honda remotes yesterday and walked away $115 richer! Another up side is he travels a good distance to buy them. He is from Miami and came all the way up to Knoxville, Tennessee to buy them from me and others in the area and was heading to Indiana after he met with me.

Don't know if I'm allowed to post his business and phone number or not but anyway thought I would share this new find and will pm anyone his info that wants it!

Well I had to crack an old one open that I had laying around. Its from a 2001 Ford key fob. Nice little board with decent gold plating. If he is buying them for that then he id losing money. Did he say what he does with them?

I'm not sure. He isn't recycling them though so he is getting some type of use out of them some how. He talked about the tousands and thousands of brass, brass/nickel keys he just throws away and my jaw dropped. lol

i get lots of keys i save but never have gotten a remote i do not scrap cars so maybe that's why but thanks for the info maybe now i know i will get a lot lol

So it's easier to steal cars! ;)

I kid I kid!

An thanks for the tip, I ever start coming across them, I know I can do something with them. :)

Sirscrapalot - If success were a disease, one would hope it was contagious. - Me..I think.

can You imagine... a empty can... and you drop the first one in da can.. and You hear clink.. and look into the can.. and go dang.. its gonna take quite a bit.

I've those thoughts .. at times.

pm me his number i get them alot

My bet is he has a dealer reprogrammer. If so, he can reprogram working ones and sell them. Those things are not cheap to replace, so a spurce of used ones I am betting still goes for quite a bit EACH.

Edit...just did a quick search for replacement car fob...hondas start at $60 and then like lexus run upwards of $170. So I am laying money that is what he does with them...reprogram and resell.

Does he have a website? Our shop comes across them all the time. Would like to see if i can sell to him.

Thanks for the info, i don't run across many of them, but at least i now know what to do with them. Thats what i love about this Forum.

Maybe he would be interested in advertising on this forum.

I would think that getting a Buyers Thread going here for him would be a cheap investment.

Ditto

Found out you can ship to him. Thanks alot for this post. Gonna go to the salvage yards in the area and see what they want for old key fobs.

Emailed him on tuesday, no reply. Bummer i have around 40...

he doesnt respond to email really.I am going to start buying them for $1.00 i hope.

Thats what im gonna try and buy them for. Gonna try calling local wrecking yards. Im sure they just leave them in the cars when they crush em.

Most of mine came from people leaving keys behind at our shop. We leave them for a few months, if nobody claims them, they go into the scrap bucket.

would love to get his info very cool

I emailed him and also one place out of Neb. that advertises. Nothing from him but got an email back already from the place in Neb. They don't pay to well but better than nothing. And they have the same pay options.
Next day service on the email at least,,, I'll forward the info if wanted.

I usually just text with him most of the time. The number on his site is his cell phone and he does text.

I did receive an email and price list today from him, Gonna check it out.

Edit; Their prices are 3-5 times higher than the other place I found.

I was offered 75 for thr 26 mixed (mostly domestic) fobs. Plus one audi fob with the flip out key. Im gonna ask for a list as well. wanna see exactly whats worth what so i know what to watch for. and if im gonna start offering to buy them, i dont wanna end up paying too much.

Could I get the guys info and what does he pay on average I can get 11 for 10 bucks of any kind I want locally
