Lol, remember, price changes daily,   You need to be quick or arrange a day,
They have 7 day fixed pricing . They may pass it on to you depending on quantity .  But I doupt it lol.     Don\'t get burned, use a place like Devizes reclamation or emr

i spoke to ivan but he didnt really give me a proper answer.
price change daily but cant change that much? think is more a case of buy low, keep til price rise then sell. but in the mean time can do other things. kinda like stock and shares but unlike financial stock market, scrap wont bottom out and go into admin / liquidation etc.

still not an easy game. *sigh*

best bet is to phone about before you scrap stuff unless you haver a good scrap dealer you deal with all the time as they tend to give you a good price. ours is about £140 a ton but it has been as low as £90 a ton in december.
