Buddy of mine runs a salvage yard.He says the accepted business practice
is that each car occupies a slot.Each slot should produce a certain
amount of income per month.When a vehicle fails to produce...it gets
crushed.Old yards run by old guys can survive but new owners cant let
money producing slots sit filled with non producing cars.Economics may
suck but the owners arent doing this just to get by.As far as ebay
goes...after selling the 5(arbitrary number) high dollar parts off a car
the rest is $1-$10 items that may take months to sell.
