Its a fine line to walk. On one hand, youre doing a service by keeping those hard to find parts from making it to the crusher, which they will go once the car has been picked over good enough. On the other hand, its about equal to all those people buying up Wii's, PS3's and tickle me elmo's at walmart and selling them for a stupid profit on ebay. To each his own, its a capitalist country, if youre not going to do it, im sure someone else is.
What about the person who buys a "parts car" off of craigslist for a 200 bucks, strips it, sells the parts and sends the shell to the crusher?
Something to think about.

I've got shells I can't see being crushed. 4 to be exact. Thanks for your support
