In my experience you need to find the right scrap yard. If they treat you like crap, forget it. Just walk away. If they treat you like a customer, that's different. I have one yard I went to that is famous or changing prices. I found an old Jeep I needed and a disc plow. The agreed on price was $400.00 for both. Next day I show up with the trailer and the price has jumped to $500.00 for the Jeep and $250.00 for the plow. Screw that. A year later I go back looking for some expanded metal screening. Find a nice hunk under a bunch of other stuff, offer $20.00, far more than the scrap value. Agree on the sale, tells me to come back tomorrow- I should have known better. I come back the next day, he didn't have a chance to get it unburied. This goes on for 2 weeks. Last time I was there everything in the pile was gone. He accuses me of not showing up like I said I would!
