WTB Catalytic converters
 
If anyone has any OEM catalytic converters sitting in their garage, basement or the car they are parting out I will buy them. Email me at partz_man@comcast.net and let me know what you have. Thanks

$300 each, how many you want?

They went from $200 each to $300 each just because this is a different board?

Anyway, I'll take 0 from you as I can get them cheaper from a Honda dealer.

I have one from a 95 EX. It's rusted a bit and the heat shield rattles. $30 plus whatever shipping is.

how does this work? I need to get in on this. I'm guessing you transport the weed in the catalytic converter mounted on the car... :6

I own a salvage business in PA so I do have these quantities and getting more never hurts.

Re: WTB Catalytic converters
 
i got one in good condition from a 96 civic ex 30+ shjpping

how much are these worth at the recyclers anyways? they got platinum in them right?

rexracer 02-27-2007 08:52 PM

Re: WTB Catalytic converters
 
50 shipped which means you'll get more than the $30.00 + shipping. I am STRONGLY against paypal, but I made an account to pay people because you guys love it so much. Let me know the address. As far as how much they are worth, its NOT the platinum. The metal worth the $$$ is the rhodium that cats have and it all depends on your quantity. The only thing is there is a minimum quantity when selling them to someone who is melting them down. Most people do not have 500 cats sitting in their garage. I own a salvage business in PA so I do have these quantities and getting more never hurts. This way you are getting money for something that is pretty much worthless to the average guy and I am making a profit as well. It works out well for everyone.

Re: WTB Catalytic converters
 
i also hate paypal (see below). i will take 50$ money order though let me know ill PM u my address


whats rhodium used for? ive heard of local places paying more for import cats, someone told me they have more of whatever is valuable?

sorry for all the questions, im just like that.. but how do they sell these "high flow cats" so cheap on ebay if the guts are valuable?

Rhodium is MORE precious than platinum and is in the platinum family you ------- moron. Why don't you research before you try and call me a liar. You shouldn't be in the business if you don't know what you're doing.

Rhodium has been used for honors, or to symbolize wealth, when more commonly used metals such as silver, gold, or platinum are deemed insufficient. In 1979 the Guinness Book of World Records gave Paul McCartney a rhodium-plated disc for being history's all-time best-selling songwriter and recording artist. Guinness has also noted items such as the world's "Most Expensive Pen" or "Most Expensive Board Game" as containing rhodium.


Guess they should have talked to you first so they could get their ---- right.
