No im not talking about kitty cats, im talking catalytic converters. Who here has sold their old cats? Im replacing both of my pre cats with 2 high flows, and want to know how much i can get for them. Who do you sell them to? How much are you getting? I have heard people saying they are getting $150 on here for their old cats, so my question is: Why are these salvage yards paying double the price for a 10 yr old cat, when a new one is only $70. Do the old cats have more platinum in them making them worth more?

 

Well your pre-cats aren't the real value holding cats, but there is a little rhodium in them which will make them a value to scrap, I would say anywhere from $50 - $100 for both scrapped.

 

ur the cat man

 

meeooww

 

Get a room

 

hmm, I went to the scrap yard with my two cats from my 05' this summer, they set em on the scale and said $20.00 for both. They are both back in a corner in the garage...

 

Depends on the price of the precious metals market. When I sold mine to a metal recycler in '07 I got $200 for precats+cats, new hiflows only cost $160. Also the newer vehicles don't have as much precious metals as those on older ones hence the lower value.

 

hmm..im gonna call around and check it out. thanks boss

 

that was a little if you ask me

 

we had a moment

 

lmao this reminds me, when i had my cats gutted.

i went in and told him i wanted to gut them, (ive done A TON of business with him) he said ok. little while later he said i gotcha all fixed up and i asked how much and he said 20 bucks. i was like DANG why so cheap he had a big a$$ grin on his face and gave me the story about all the goodies inside the converter. i was like oh ok!!!!

 

It wasn't meant to sound like that, god..

 

every stupid exhaust shop ive been to wanted to keep my cats after they replaced them.....ghey
