    Jmerrit, I've never bought anything in 5 years of doing this. I haul strictly on shares....50/50. There may be more competition in your neck of the woods, but there are established scrappers around me and I'm busier than they are. Seems like they've been dishonest in their dealings and the word spreads. Once you establish yourself as an honest hauler/buyer/whatever, you will get more business. Good feedback travels as well as does the bad. If you're able to load them, look for collections like you see in this picture and go for it, but don't take those out of Stormin' Norman's dancehall.
