    been lerking for awhile but just now joined

    I started scrapping about a year ago as some extra $$$ buying brass silver gold and wire at auctions as I buy and sell things for a living doing mostly ebay. I am now expanding to doing shred also, I am not as hard core as some I will tear down major large items but leave the little items together my rule of thumb is about $15 if I can't get that out of it I don't tear it down.
    Learning alot on here thanks to all the good info.

    Yea but if you add all those little 1 dollar items together then you have a good payday.
