Forum Tip got me some extra cash today!

[utahscrapper]

This week, I picked up a complete, but weathered 1971 Honda dirt bike. Before this forum, I would have dropped it off at the scrap yard on the way home. But I called around and found a guy that buys old bikes and he bought it from me for $75. $75 is way better than scrap price. And the guy was really excited to get the bike! Always look for potential buyers on stuff you pick up and see if there is a market for things before just scrapping them. You can make a lot of extra money. It surprising what collectors will buy.

Congrats Utah! Don't you just love when something works out so good like that?!

Good job selling something will always bring more than scrap!!

My easiest was a snowblower attachment off a riding mower, got 100 for it

Utah, I wonder if the guy you sold the bike to repairs them and if so he might have some broken motorcycle scrap for you.

I look everything up anymore.

Funniest was this random box of junk. While sorting through it I found 3 sealed packages of vintage 70's "sanitary belts", had them in my hand to pitch in the trash and said WTH, I'll look them up.

I have no idea why someone would collect them or want them, and I don't really want to know why.

They sold for a little over $75.00

Why, to be a display in the Museum of Menstruation and Women's Health, of course.
