    Flyers starting to get results

    Dropped a few flyers to local shops today. Got a call back within the hour from owner of a vacuum repair shop in my town. Said he piles up burnt out motors and takes them to scrap yard about once a month. Going to meet with him tomorrow. Also found out that he has another store and that he collects motors from both locations. Depending on size of motors,I have to come up with a price that works for both of us. The only hiccup could be the size of the motors. If they are small frationals less then 1/4 hp then I usually don't break those down, but I can't pay full motor price for those....any suggestions..yard that I use is paying.25# for cbm.

    Can you get the cords off them too? They would be worth as much as the motors.
