Default How much for a used catalytic converter?

I have a 93 del sol and i recently took off the cat and just put a straight pipe. I went to some shop that buys them and he said that it was "half-filled" so he offered me $45. This good or am i gettin ripped for a honda cat?

sounds good to me, especially since it can be hard to find places that will buy them. you really don't need an opinion on this since your next best option is to get a quote from another place that buys them. Or, keep it because new OEM ones are expensive as hell.

$45 is crap for a full sized converter. i get $75-85 from local scrappers, who in turn sell them for a profit.

check your local craigslist, there are usually people on there that buy them for various prices. Around here its usually $50 and up depending on the cat.
