That's what I was wondering, have a place right down the street, might as well get some money for them instead of letting some smuck take them for free. 20 bucks is 20 bucks.[/b]
I GOT SCREWED!!!!!!!! mad
I took desert rat's advice and took them to my recycling center, 4 rims weighed in at 80 pounds total. The guy marked them as iron so they only gave me 2 cents per pound, aluminum scrap paid 33 cents per pound. I argued until I was blue in the face, he was convinced that they should be labeled as iron but they were definitely some type of aluminum alloy. Got a whole $1.60 for the set. Would have been better off putting them by the curb. :rolleyes:
