    newattitude- Scrap, steel especially, sounds a lot like the wild fur market. The 2015 auctions were pretty abysmal for everything except a few regional species but the 2016 sales are lining up to be worse because the Chinese economy has slowed even further and the Russians are still no shows at the auction houses. These 2 countries represent the largest markets for North American wild fur. But, on the up side, I can store frozen hides in a freezer in a lot less space than stockpiling steel.



    I'm going to finish out the Monday pre-dawn curbco I've been doing this summer through October. I found some interesting things to re-sell but I needed to get a small storage locker so my garage remained somewhat acceptable for the wifey and that just didn't pay for itself doing things very part time. Post-Christmas, I'm going to start posting locally in my bedroom burg for busted and unwanted electronics and see if I can keep up without overwhelming my garage space. We'll see what happens...
