Best place to sell spent brass??

[Old Noob]

I know I can separate and sort and sell spent brass on this site and other places.
But, I have a large bag of mixed spent brass. Over 30 pounds I don't feel like sorting. I see a few places online and you can ship it to them and they send you a check.
Anybody have experience doing this?
Any good local PDX and surrounding area places I can sell it local?

I'm sure for the right price one of these guys will take it off your hands.

When you say mixed brass, is it different manufacturers or different calibers?

Yes, correct.

Most of it is 45 ACP, 380 ACP, 9mm, and 5.56 but has some other stuff mixed in also. I always clean up after myself and others.

Well I'm sure someone here would at least give you scrap prices or maybe a little more.

Deprimed, or not? Just curious.

Some of each. I had deprived some planning to reload, but the primers came out too easily, so I decided to sell it for scrap. Some had been reloaded enough times and was not deprimed.

I would second that. Theres a lot of people who either dont like bending over, CANT bend over, and dont like paying the price of new brass. Also some people getting started might not have a surplus of brass, also some people might not have a good range that offers free brass laying around. Either way... Please dont scrap usable brass! It's a sin!!

Good point. There was a gentleman here earlier who posted about deals on components. I bet he'd be interested for the right price!

This place Capitalcartridge says they will pay 1.40 a pound but you have to pay for shipping it to them. Might equal out with the price of shipping.

OK, I will ask around when my bucket is full.
