Around here the recyclers wont' take certain things now, and for other things they require a valid ID to record. I like it because it forced some of the looney "off the grid" recycler bums to head out of town.

BTW My bro just busted 4 nogs (one was an 18mo old lol) for ripping alum siding off a forclosed house. They had everything they could reach from the ground ripped off.

No scrap yard around here cares. They all ask for ID and basically dont link it with shit.  You can steal lik lets say an etire oven from the side of someones house and take it to a scrap yard right up the street and even if the home owner came home within 2 hours you wont catch it.

I said "Dont you guys check ID's?" Reply:" Yeah but we dont do anything with them and it would only work for small stuff"
I asked" what about the camera over by the register" His response" I dont think its ever worked actually"

It was awesome.  Ask me how i know.

Now a couple things like copper wiring are worth a pretty penny if you have enough of it.

Honestly though, how much can scrapping a block/head be worth?  A case of beer?

After paying for gas and the time spent doing all the work. They are losing money.

scrapyards are buying solid aluminum/wheels/blocks/heads etc @ .52 a pound. clean copper wire is going for 2.80 a pound.

Tell me about as part of my job I have to keep track of spot prices for copper.

My ingot suppliers are telling me $4.5 to $5/ lbs. next year.

Because China is planning on building 700M new homes and copper is used for plumbing.

So I'm going to be investing in futures contracts soon. ;D

Keep an eye on China though - the CDM housing market is just waiting to burst, those chinks control everything with an iron fist and pretty soon the # of people who can pay the exorbiant prices for sheds out there is going to plummet, so their plans for building a dickload of houses are contingent on a lot of shakey govt controlled bullshit - they are about to have to start jacking up salaries for workers which SHOULD lead to more home buying except a lot of the homes/land that are supposed to be built are going to be looking for govt money too... im really skeptical of the whole situation I don't know if they are going to build and sell a shitload of homes when the market flops or if they are going to make everyone go back to their 30 chinks to a room workers dorms. Fuck the chinese middle class.

I knew an old fart that used to strip down copper cables/wires and other electronics for side cash.  He was definitely of the non-tweaker sort, and used to pay me money to strip the wiring before I could legally work, so must have been making a decent amount of change.
