Easy Money

[savagenomore]

I'd strip the copper and sell the aluminum as is because it probably not worth stripping it, depends on price though..

[terminal99]

@savagenomore I ended up selling the aluminum wire just the way it was. It was not worth the effort to strip it.

[trinketgobblin]

burning wire is not just illegal, it's a federal crime as it violates the federal clean air act, you get caught burning wire you get big fines and deep shit, best to strip it buy hand or sell as is .

@Cdltpx listen what you have to say is true but my biggest issue is that i can buy any 2-4 year old car that gets roughly 25 mpg or better under $16,000 and yet you still would choose to be a dumbass and waste $35,000 on a plastic toy that barely has anyroom or safety. I know this because my ex ran me over twice with it each time my 190lbs 6'6" structure folded her plastic toy and when she lost control and rear ended my 06 ram i had no scratches or dints just a mess

The true easy money is driving a Prius go to fuel economy dot gov plug in the numbers for your F150 then search for a prius you can add a trailer to the car for what you are using it for.( you might have the truck for a camper or boat but be honest how often do you drag that stuff?) I found out that my Prius completely pays for itself when we reach 125K miles a totally free car just with gas savings. That is easy money right there? NEW 23.5K used $17K either way you just can't loose. Ron Paul 12

@cdltpx If fuel cost rise as they have the return on our investment decreases bc the car will save more money as fuel prices rise. To drive 200K miles in any Prius the cost is 5K gallons of fuel. To do so in the F150 it will cost at BEST 13,333 gallons U are on the side the road 2 times the time refueling than the Prius. I would keep the F 150 park it and use it ONLY when a huge load had to be drug such as a boat or a camper those events are planned so you can insure for those days only.

[cdltpx]

@cdltpx Free country and you are free to do anything you please what I am telling you is to just go look at the numbers and when you do start to think outside the box. Political events in the short future is going to dry up fuel the long lines of the 70's are going to return and prices are going to rise. Peak oil is what we are facing and the short term remedy is the Prius. Great ideas there but to me you are not making any additional money as long as F150 is in your ass sideways.

good

burn the wires to skip the hassle of striping it, but sort the aluminium and copper wires+burning wires is illegal in alot of states so be careful

[veritasfiles]

Scrap the aluminum, but you'll generally only get a fraction per pound of what you'd get for copper.

[narcoti]

why dont you burn the insulation off the wires?

[ilikegoldandsilver2]

You must be one busy hard working individual, who makes a heck of a lot of money

[eviltrucks101]

holy shit all that wire yea defantly strip it.

[Begbucks]

Many people will rather pay you (or me) to rummage thru the dumpster for them since they are to freaken lazy (or snobbish) to do it themselves!

[punktexas]

In my area boxes are always available in the "free" craigslist list. Maybe they are selling in the general listing on craigslist?? I need to do a little research for sure.

[terminal99]

@punktexas They don't sell often. There are plenty of places around here to get free boxes also. Some people like the idea of getting a load of nice, strong, large boxes without a hassle.

[DADDYCRUNCH]

with aluminum wires strip them put it with your cans to increase the wgt its the same price as cans.You make more on scrap metal loads if u strip and separate trhe metals.

[terminal99]

@DADDYCRUNCH Thanks

[drinkmoresoda]

@DADDYCRUNCH melt it into ingots

[MrKitJ32]

My dad can get packing boxes from his work for 25 cents a piece. Do you think it would be profitable to purchase 30 at a time and sell them on craigslist?

[terminal99]

@MrKitJ32 If they are a good size and well made. Buy 30 and give it a try. The worst that can happen is you're out $7.50. I've sold two lots of boxes in the last two weeks. It's nothing great, but better than nothing. Will

[Theredneckpicker]

Hey I don't know if it works or not but I once saw and old dood picking up the scrap wire from a housing project. He set it on fire!! I don't know how it turned out though!! LOL

[Theredneckpicker]

WOOOHOOO!! Nice job man!! Every penny counts!! Thanks for the shout out!

[MrKitJ32]

I have access to a ridiculous amount of boxes just like these. Can I see what your craigslist add looked like.

[terminal99]

@MrKitJ32 In the title, I called it "30 Packing Storage Moving Cardboard Boxes" in the title. I like to use a lot of different possible search words in the title. I included a pic of the boxes and mentioned that these were large / strong boxes.

[kennyz6979]

good idea man. . . you are very wise

[JrProductionx]

any tips for listing things on criagslist?

[terminal99]

@JrProductionx You want to use many possible search words in your title to make it easier to find. Always have a picture also. Some things take some time to sell. Don't be in a hurry to sell.
