The first thing you need to know is that when you order parts online you should be on the lookout for best price. There are many sites on the web that sell Kawasaki and Yamaha and will offer you 50% off on all parts. This is partly bogus because many of these companies rack up huge shipping charges. You, as a consumer, do not really save anything in the end and that is disappointing. But you can really get your hands on some killer stuff though because these sites sell a wide range of new and used parts. Shopping online is a much better way to get the parts you need instead of visiting junk dealers.

With that out of the way, and your research complete, you show up all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed on the scheduled auction day – ready to make your first deal. If you’ve never been to an auction before, take some time to look around and of course check out the various bikes on which you might bid. Always have a back-up as you might not get the first one you bid on, or the second…but eventually you will go home with a two wheeler…or at least have learned enough from the experience to try again another day.

You may be wondering, why should I not look for potential buyers in my area when looking to sell my car rather than an auto salvage company? The answer is you should. It is quite likely that you may be able to find a car enthusiast or a needy person who would be willing to purchase your damaged vehicle but in some cases you may actually not be able to find a single buyer willing to pay for your beat up ride. This is because the cost of repairing the vehicle may be well over the actual worth of your car.

Also ask about the title for the car. The car may have a salvage or rebuildable title. This indicates that an insurance company got the car due to a claim and that the state issued a salvage title. The majority of the time, this type of car will be fixable. You’ll just need to get a vehicle inspection.

Gold is so valuable because there is only a fixed amount of it on earth. It cannot be made in a laboratory or factory, but it can be used and reused over and over again. It is the ultimate recyclable material. So, again, just about anything qualifies as scrap including; bracelets and chains, gold coins, gold crowns and dental bridgework, gold earrings, gold solder, gold pins, broaches, and gold watches.

Shop around, too. There’s plenty of companies offering all sorts of different scrap metal prices on various grades of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Know the yards – all of the yards – in your area. Know their strengths, and what materials they offer weaker pricing on. Also be aware of their distances, drive time equals gas money…and spending an extra $10 in gas to get $0.05 of a higher scrap metal price on 10 LB of brass doesn’t make sense…or cents!! Don’t be afraid to keep a little black book full of addresses, phone numbers, lists of what to take where and when, and all other sorts of notes and information that might come in handy.

To determine the value of your gold, you’ll need your math skills and a scale (preferably one of the type used by jewelers, but a kitchen scale will work as well). Most dealers and refineries transact gold on a pennyweight basis, so if you’re using a kitchen scale, you’ll need to convert from grams or ounces. One ounce is the same as 20 pennyweights, and 1.5 grams is equal to one pennyweight. Once you have weighed your scrap gold, check the spot price. That figure is in ounces, so divide it by 20 for its pennyweight value or by 31.1 for its gram value. Keep in mind that the spot price is for pure gold; scrap is never pure (24 karats). You won’t get the entire spot price, but you’ll have a rough estimate of your profit.

While junk yards are one of the most common places where you can find used parts, they’re not the only places. Though, you will always get much better deals at holiday rentals than any other place. Most of the damaged and old vehicles always have a number of spares that work perfectly well. Sometimes these parts are almost new. The only problem with junkyards is that at most of the times you will have to locate and remove the spare part yourself. On the flipside, this saves your money on labor charges that some other dedicated stores might charge you.

Is getting back together what you honestly wish? Is it what’s best for both of you? Be honest with yourself and make particular you’re not just going through separation anxiety.
