Pick-N-Pull is a butt rape.

I've never had to pay any fees (or taxes) with any junkyard I've ever been to in my area. Usually everything is a cash deal. Even the classic car junkyard filled with 7,000 cars from the 40's thru the 70's ... is always cash (and expensive).

The bigger problem is when you think you are going to get a good deal on say a late model car part and they pull up on their computer "Well the dealership will charge you $512.13 for a new part. So we want $500. And thanks for taking it off our wreck and bringing it to the office so we can list it on Ebay for $250".
or
"We don't give a **** about selling you a part for $25, we run 3,000 wrecked cars through the shredder every year and make $2,000,000 off the scrap".

And just remember if you need a late model spare tire, they are now made out of solid Gold and not rubber, steel or aluminum anymore.
