Yes, an appropriate correlation is that if they can crush computers (before
shredding the carcass) then they can cru$h you.
Their profits drop corresponding with losses of bids so they're going to
spend extra in the short term to protect their profits in the long term.

Where can you
find out what the gold/aluminum/steel value of a
computer at? The obvious solution is to know what a scrapper is
willing to pay, and add $10 to your bid. A scrapper will never
spend more to buy something than it is worth, a collector will.
Not a good assumption. A scrapper might be willing to spend whatever it
took to make you never get a winning bid and just go away.
