Is there some law against selling the stuff in working
condition?
Contract Law. While most surplus sales are outright sales many are contract
sales which may have restrictive clauses. How willing the scrapper is to
violate contract law, a civil matter, varies widely.
Certified destruction is a contract where destruction is usually certified by
an outside auditor.
A good scrapper holds to his contracts in order to get repeat business and
maintain his reputation as reliable.
There are many shady and fly by night people in the scrap business. There are
many good and reliable people too.
