It only helps a little at a time, but when I buy an engine or trans out, and get the discount, rather than take the discount on gross profit, I sell the part at book cost, put the engine or trans into inventory at the cheaper price, and make old obsolete that equals the dollar total of the difference disappear.
A creative solution to a horrible problem I have been told.
Ive also sent lists to some of the big hitters that I have found on Google, but the same thing, they want to pick and choose and take only what they want. One day, maybe, the obsolescence gods will smile upon us and make our old parts once again desirable and we can sell them all!
