    Scott hit it on the head. Half the job is finding "it" the other half is selling "it".

    My wife and I were very successful metal detecting in Hawaii. I found lots of men's wedding bands my wife found lots of ladies rings(not wedding bands). I sold most of my rings for scrap gold price and my wife sold many of her finds to friends and others for 3-5 times scrap gold price. Of course we had to learn how to buff the rings she sold to get them looking good again but that's part of the second half.



    Today most of my income from scrapping is from the reselling of used parts. 73, Mike

    Now go beat the copper out of something, Miked
