If you do advertise........I think 150 would be a descent number to buy at. Let us know if you do that because we'd all like to see how you grow with that aspect of scrapping!

All i do is look up the curb weight on google. I never offer more than curb weight. Say a car weighs 3500 pounds, I wouldnt pay more than 350. If you can get it for less than curb weight, you'll do well.

Yeah but half of the time that stuff is wrong.You need to know how much the cat and wheels are.If you live in a big city where everybody does it then you have to pay top dollar and only make $100 or so.
