    Full timers, are you noticing a drop in scrappers around you or still the same?

    When prices started dropping I figured it would knock out some competition. However, it seems I am actually seeing more. At work, we aren't getting as many turn-ins but I think folks are stockpiling.

    I am stockpiling all but steel, get it out of the way and not start a junk yard in my yard lol.

    This time of year, colder, end of year and post yard and garage cleaning ups, things are usually down anyways. I did get more last week than normal but that could have been a fluke.



    So was just wondering what everyone else was noticing around them, more or less competition with the market down? Or the same?
