It was seized up, had been rained on, sat for years, just wasted. The oil that came out of it was completely black. Looked like someone had literally been beating on it. It was just destroyed.

Did you think it would weigh less or more?
And yeah 0.05 a pound is about right for dirty steel, if you stripped, cleaned it and seperated the dis-simillar metals you would get 0.10 a pound

Clean copper is about $1.00 a pound these days.

I figured less, wayyy less. Nah, that place is supposed to pay $0.08 lb for steel. I got home and realized that he had marked TIN on my receipt. I guess since I'm only 16 he figured he'd try and rip me off. Place was already closed. My dad is gonna stop over there on Monday and talk to the guy.
