Seems to me you're getting a pretty good price as is - $38.00 labor plus the price of the shaft is a pretty good hit, I think. TFrom: [email protected]: Tue, 17 Feb 2009 13:25:12 -0500Subject: Re: ShopTalk: What's up?To: [email protected]
I'm trying to do some early spring cleaning, and took a bunch of steel shaft pull outs to the recycler. One local guy pays $00.03 lb for steel and $00.43 lb for stainless steel. He told me because a magnet stuck to it that it wasn't stainless and only wanted to give me the $00.03. Well, I don't know if their stainless or not, but I know a magnet will stick to most stainless, the exception being if it has a very high nickel content. My Vector 17-7 irons have 7% nickel which is high and a magnet sure sticks to them. Another local guy pays $00.20 for stainless and he took it as stainless just by looking at it, he didn't whip out his pocket magnet. So I got $52.00 for 260lbs of steel pull outs so that's about a nickel a piece. When we do a re shaft we charge $10.00 for the pull and prep, and $9.00 for std assembly or $19.00 for spine and flo. I wonder if the market would bare a "shaft disposal fee" Don't they do that with tires? David In a message dated 2/17/2009 8:41:15 A.M.
