Do you have someone buying inkjet cartridges by the pound? Or did they buy them based on brand and cartridge #?

Holding most everything, but when the steel pile gets too big I need to move it :sick:

Went to a customer's building today and saw they had a pile of sealed lead acid batteries in the corner. I asked if I could take care of it for them. He helped me load them in my truck. Went to scrap yard during lunch and at 25 cents a lb got $36. Not bad for a little lunch run.

On TH I took in 200lbs of steel @ 8ยข/Lb.

About 52 lbs of it was the old heat exchanger from my furnace I replaced about a year and 3/4
back. (I weighed that item before loading it up.)

Yikes, $2.15 is rather low. I'd hang on a little longer too. Its $2.50 here.


Scrapped 140 lbs of steel from a friend's basement re-model (old utility shower walls/base and steel gas pipes) at $0.10/lb for "unclean sheet".

Most of the "stainless" from China is debatable, or has just barely enough non-ferrous in it. I got a "stainless" made in China kitchen ware from IKEA and it stuck to a magnet. Maybe that's why, who knows.

Nah I wish I got paid for magnetic stainless, it goes in with the steel by me. Last time stainless was that low was 2009.
