    Was it dumb luck? or did they know you process scrap there??

    Be careful who you tell!!

    hats why when I sell an item thatit "pick up" on ebay, I drive 10 mins down the road and meet them, I use the excuse that

    "everyone ggets lost finding my place, so I'll meet you at XYZ.."

    Has worked so far.

    Havent been on SMF long, but the members seem to all want to help each other out. However….since the internet is open to anyone, there could be thieves who read this forum and even check out pics posted and are somehow able to gain enough info to help them steal? Same as Facebook info?? Scary thought. It's disheartening to know there are people who capitalize on honest scrappers hard work and dont care what hrs., even yrs went into harvesting the scrap.Must confess stories like these make me think differently about scrapping, even small time. Sorry this happened to you, stay at it be tenacious with the phone calls to scrap yards etc and pray you are successful in catching the thieves.
