Cars for scrap prices

[quote=“Nikuk,post:4,topic:38657"”]

I think what JayS is saying is that considering the market prices for steel… why is this guy only getting $200 for ~1500lbs (??) of scrap steel?

Because that’s about what scrap steel is worth…

I had 1000lbs. of scrap metal from a few parts cars, think I got something like $75 for it. Call Metalico, they’ll tell you the going rates for metal, aluminum, copper, etc…I called them last week, I think it was like 6 cents/pound for metal and 59 cents/pound for aluminum.
