I may never have qualified as an average scrapper, maybe only a hobby scrapper. Couple of 4 figure payouts, but $50 was more the norm. With going from 9 cents to 2 cents a pound for shred steel, that $50 is now closer to $10. Not much motivation there.
I don't grab everything anymore, only the real desirable stuff that is smaller. Have told family members to not save anything for me that isn't a computer, or to just save the cord on many items. Haven't brought/sent in much of any, if any at all, of non-ferrous in nearing 2 years, but don't have too much more than I did a year ago.
