Personally .... i don't bear any ill will toward any of the traditionalists. They are just out there trying to make a living like everyone else.
There's the hassle factor but they're also creatures of habit. It's their habit to sell what they scrap to the yard.
It's kind of a shame because of what we were talking about earlier in the thread. They're making a bee line to the option that pays the very least. After taking out operating expenses they may even operating at a loss.
ie: On the local level it's a 60 mile run to the scrap yard. The true cost of running a vehicle these days is roughly 50 cents a mile. Round trip is 120 miles or 60.00$.
At 30 cents a pound for green boards they would have to sell 200 lbs of boards just to break even.
That's a whole lotta printers. An awful lot of time invested and a lot of plastic waste dumped that the municipality (taxpayer) has to pay to get rid of.
Ohh well .... Not my concern. Hopefully they'll eventually figure out for themselves that it's not really working.
