How would you scrap these valves

**vintagegirl** · 05-17-2014, 09:03 PM

I know some of these valve retail for $200. Not sure if i can scrap them for the brass because of the silver metal inside them. I tried uploading a pic but I cant seem to get it to work. i hope it shows up. My question is how would you scrap them? or would you try and sell them as is for original use?

If it is a ball valve, the silver colored ball should be nickel plated brass. The only non brass part is the handle.

I would try Ebay. Certainly worth more than scrap.

yes some of them have ball valves. so are you saying just take handle off to get brass price for scrap? Its a shame to have to scrap them since they retail for so much more. I listed them on craigslist with only one response and they wanted a lot of 50 i only have 10. I tried to ad pic as my profile pic so you could see them since i cant ad to post thread. How long does it take to be able to post pics on here?
