( humans are very destructive and unfaithfull sometimes) at the same time feeling relieved and to some extent happy to see good old parts for our cars found in piles. Having said that this is the right time to stock them.
These guys buy cars for mere 14-15 thousands and make around 4-5 thousand more by scrapping as the metals like aluminium, iron etc sold seperately will fetch them more, however they stock many parts for some time to sell them at a premium price and this price will vary on person to person, time and need/necessacity.
We also Need to know the art of bargaining along with good knowledge/distinguish the parts is necessary this will only come by experience.
Next time Shiva, Ram garu when you go to the yard please add me also na, I am ready with my trolley/basket.
I feel Shaym's guy should be reliable and a good source to find parts and who knows someone can be lucky to get a classic ( for Me 1 good Delite)
Any clue how much would a door cost ram garu with the quarter glass. |
Good company makes your visit to the scrapyard more enjoyable and financially strong. Bala bhai hope you are able to get one fiat delight with original fittings intact.
Regarding the price at which scrappers buy fiats range from 6000-10000 Max depending on the condition. And selling parts to recyclers get them around somewhere to 18000-25000 Rs. Sometimes they enjoy their day if we people land up in their shop purchasing parts as units.
The art of bargaining comes only with self learning. As Arun bhai clearly stated don't get excited over the part you desperately need in front of the scrapper. Otherwise he will quote very high non negotiable prices. One thing more which one should not do when visiting scrapyard is to hurry. Take more time bargaining the price rather than paying sau pachas less on the amount stated by scrapper.
Why do you want to buy the doors. Is it for the quarter glass. Do check for the rust under and inside the door. The doors will cost you somewhere between 350-600 depending on the condition and model(cut glass or plain). I inquired about these prices from scrapper just for you He quoted me following breakup: Window glass Rs. 50, Door along with window winder mechanism 400. Aluminum fittings sum up for 40Rs which include side pattis, window channel,door handles. Do keep in mind that these prices are negotiable. So it all depends on your art of bargain. Wishing you and all the FCCH members best wishes for you next visit. |
