I doubt they will be in business for long with a 10 cent profit margin.
Yards in Miami are just Bat-Guano nutty. you realize there are a Manure-ton of yards literally right next door to each other so price competition is completely out of control, I would not: buy, sell, or even golf with any of them. they are notorious for grading games, scale games, deductions etc. In short anything you hear about Miami scrap prices has to be taken with a bucket of salt
