    I notice about this time of the year the prices drop then picks up around dec or jan so hopefully will in your area. Sounds like it must be slowing down if closing on saturdays hope it picks up for ya.

    its funny about prices the ups and downs like batteries for example the other day my yard dropped them to 17clb from 25 which is big but with what I am getting I still triple my money but I still base a lot of my prices for metals from when I was a teen getting 80cents for number 1 and a whopping 15cents for reg alu 24for ext lol that way I am not always disappointed when prices drop lol
