Basically I watched this reality TV show, about scapping recently and they bought scrap from a scrap yard and sold it to the Gershow recycling yard in Ny. Their site: Scrap Metal Buyers - Long Island, New York, Suffolk Nassau County



Now here's my dilema. The Scrap yards sell copper for 3.00, and the recycling yards buy it for 1.40.

I'm missing something here - how is this done? I know he buys from scrap yards abd sells to recycling yards but i can't figure out how it's done. But on the show, he did buy brass, maybe that has something to do with it.
