tc, We had the same thing happen last month with the ferrous scrap we were cutting. All of a sudden they called and said we couldn't ship them anything else over 24 inches and bigger then 5 foot plate. I got a chuckle out of it they new the price was on its way down and wanted to protect there necks which is understandable but I have been shipping the same mill scrap for 4 years and it was never ever ever cut to size i always cut a few inches over both ways so for them to pick out a few pieces and say they were 31 inches wide was kinda fishy. I drove by the mill and found out why they had piles of scrap all different grades everywhere. They just didn't want to lose more money then they had to. Then I heard that one yard had 20 loads rejected and laid off all there burners that made me laugh till my stomach hurt. I have never had a load rejected in my life and never plan to so for them to say something is to big or wasn't right was just kinda fishy. So sometimes when they have inventory they can't sell they start getting real specific for fear of rejection or downgrade so its kinda understandable with the gold price fluctuation in the marketplace for them to all of a sudden start segregating like that. Now this month total different story we are back to shipping it big and they took it and loved it. So just let the market settle and try again in a month if you can hold out for a month. That's my advice.
