Just be warned, most places don't like you doing it, but you just tell the guy that he should change his mind and meet you down the street to hammer out the deal.

The yard owner probably wanted the truck for himself.

ya well the thing is i just looked out my back window and saw a guy drive it up onto the scale. i didnt see the truck that was towing it or the tow rope and i know the yard owner pretty good. ive hauled in over 250 batteries in teh last 3 months so i see him alot haha. so if i could have bought the pickup he would have let me. but i heard scrap yards are getting $1000 per ton so that pickup would have cost me like $2000 if what i heard is true. oh well, i have to get rid of 2 pickups and 3 fourwheelers just so i can get another pickup so my parents would have killed me if i drug that home haha
