I'm waiting to hear back on a Craigslist listing on weights that someone is giving away for free. Depending on what they makeup of these are--I haven't seen a picture of them--would they possibly be worth scrapping?

If it's in good condition, you could probably get more selling it to a used sporting goods store. Or to someone else.

Well, if it's not solid metal, i.e., plastic coated, I might try to resell it. Otherwise I just need the quick cash.

New plates go for around 1buck a pound at the store. and used .50c. they might pay you more for the plates than scrap.

I would do the sporting goods store thing. These could be those old plastic coated concrete weights.

Yeah, I didn't even think of them being concrete. Thanks for the heads-up. Hopefully I'll hear back on this before someone else beats me to it.

If you manage to get the entire apparatus, try and see if a local wielder will buy it off of you as scrap. Box steel and angle iron is always in demand by these guys. Get a ton of requests from some wielders and metal craftsmen I know that ask me if theirs any spare steel from my job.

I haven't heard back on this Freecycle listing, so maybe this one's a no-go. I'm keeping my eyes open for other scrap, though. Dang that I don't have a pickup so I could get other scrapping opportunities that come up from time to time.

About a month ago I found nearly 400 pounds in steel dumbells at the curb . I sold them to a friend for much less than he could have bought them for, but I still did well .

There are proper ways to sell on this forum, Spamming your book is not one of them
