Personally I will avoid any deals where percentages are involved. I find that eventually someone thinks they are getting the short end of the stick. The supplier suddenly no longer has the the high end product(Cu, Al, Brass) and all there is to share is steel. You get the idea, I'm not big on partnerships. I would much rather buy it, pay cash and sell when where and how I want to. For me its just much simpler.
Others who have suggested offering a service and even charging for the removal of scrap have the best plan, in my opinion. I don't deal in steel so charging for removal is outside of what I get involved with but much is free because they know I will dispose of it responsibly. Mike.
PS If you pay too much in the beginning you will find it very difficult to reduce your prices later, this is something I have experienced. Mike.
