In the parking lot of the recycling center, an Albanian guy in the stereotypical beat up Mercedes and a fist sized wad of bills offered me 200$ for the scrap cable in my trunk.

All the gears were removed due to damage so only the cases were left. I put them in the free section of craigslist yesterday around 5p. In less than 2 hours I had no less than a dozen emails from people offering to come pick up the cases. I responded to the first guy and they were picked up in no time. It got me wondering what the real value is for scrap aluminum. I know scrap is worth money but I am sure it isn't worth the time in small quantities. I also threw 2 16v intake manifolds (throttle body on passenger side) into the box for them to take. So what is a reasonable amount someone can expect to get from these pieces of aluminum? The guy's girlfriend came to pick up the pieces and said he likes to make odd art pieces from car parts.... who knows if that will happen or they will scrap it for money. Either way, I'm ok with whatever they want to do with it :) _______________________________________________ a2-16v-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.a2-16v.com/mailman/listinfo/a2-16v-list For list archives, see listinfo link above. _______________________________________________ a2-16v-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.a2-16v.com/mailman/listinfo/a2-16v-list For list archives, see listinfo link above.
