    welcome from Durban, South Africa.

    im having conflicting thoughts about you bcos u already have an auto shop which provides a source of income.
    i deal with ppl like you regularly- who own their own business that happens to generate scrap regularly & then they decide to take it for themselves whereas they used to allow guys who scrap for a living to have it.
    and many of them expect me to pay them almost the same amount that i would get at the yard for it- which does not make it feasible for me any more.

    im like: "come on. u at least have a source of income already. let us guys have the scrap"
    but the bottom line is that it belongs to u & you get to decide what to do with it.

    Sorry to hit a nerve my man. I have ALWAYS kept my scrap, stash it at my farm "just in case tough times come "..well, tough times have arrived. I DID used to sell m converters to a GREAT guy, but hes not around anymore..... I HOPE he's jus retired !!
