    Exclamation Buying Catalaytic Converters, Key Fobs & More- 24 Hour Payments!

    Scrap metal forum, allow me to introduce myself and our company. My name is Carl and our company ScrapYourCat.com wants to be your purchaser of scrap automotive catalyst. We have been browsing here for years, seeing the almost daily catalytic converter questions in the vehicle recycling forum. We understand that not everyone here has a strong buyer for their scrap catalytic converters, we aim to change this. We will treat you the same whether you have 1 or 1000 pieces to sell. We promise fair and accurate grading, helpful and available support for questions, and most of all fast 24 hour payments.

    We have been in the automotive and catalyst recycling business for generations. We understand the markets, and we understand the frustrations smaller businesses and scrap peddlers face. Many, not all, catalytic converter buyers all over the country, have relied on dishonest grading, large margins, and "averaging" the categories to unsuspecting buyers. The fact that many buyers purchase entire groups of converters at one price, breadloaf for example, should be a tell tale sign. Catalytic converters are no different than many other auto parts, many may look the same, but they were engineered differently per each vehicles specifications. A transfer case from a Ram 1500 with a hemi may look the same, but it is surely not the same as one found on a V6 model. This holds true for converters as well, a large breadloaf converter from a 1994 Pontiac Grand Am looks the same as a large breadloaf from a 1999 Grand Am, but they certainly were built to different specs. While one may only be worth $75, the other may be worth $195, a very large margin. The only way to determine which is which, is to have the converters assayed separately and note the part numbers. This is how we grade, we leave little up to a matter of opinion, which in turn ensures you are getting an honest price for your converter, and puts more cash in your pocket.

    We strive to provide excellent customer service, and we are here to answer any and all of your questions regarding your material. We promise, fast accurate payments, within 24 hours of receiving your converters. The accurate and increased prices you will receive for your catalytic converters, will more than make up for the shipping costs. Ever sold a converter to a scrap yard or core buyer and received $30? Only to find out later on it was worth $130? Send that same cat to us, and lets say we paid $130, subtract your shipping cost of approx. $10, and your $90 ahead.

    We also purchase many other valuable items which scrappers, recycling yards and repair shops come across frequently. Key fobs, remotes, smart keys, injectors, ecm's etc. All with fast and accurate payments.

    Our grading is one reason you will never see a price sheet from us with 15-20 categories. The variations in each number and model are so wide it would be dishonest for us to do so. We will be publishing a simple price sheet with ranges, special categories, and more. If you ever have a question or need a price we can be reached at Service@scrapyourcat.com or by phone at 1-570-591-0925, feel free to text us a picture for a price quote.

    Belarus catalyst prices are about 70% of exchange. This prices have approximate level for most catalyst recycles companies. I think, catalyst databases are useful when other info is not available.

    Good luck in shipping your catalytic converters to Belarus and getting paid the real value.

    I think the term "accurate" is incorrect for prices. This term is applicable to analytical data. Price info is interesting for persons who want to sell own catalyst in some recycling service and wants to know the order of prices. For example Lexus complect GD3 + EA6 is very expensive, but diesel filter with serial 3M51-5H221-AD (Ford Focus 1.8 dci) is empty and this filter will not be bought by any recycling service.

    I have good news and bad news.

    Bad news: your Toyota Prius doesn’t have Cadillac converters.

    Good news: your Toyota Prius has some very valuable catalytic converters that are worth great money. Please see my paid advertisement for catalytic converters and contact me. Just text me a picture of what you have and I will text back with a free quote. Have the manufacture’s codes included in the text if you can locate them please. Thank you.
