You have to license the buyers and make them account for every lb they recycle by having the serial numbers to compare it. They would have to submit those number as soon as the buy one. If the converter doesn't have one they can't buy it, and setting up stings for that would be pretty easy.
- TheLoafOfBread 4y agoSo they will just start selling those converters abroad. Toothless
- oblib 4y agoWell, it starts locally. A meth head stealing a converter isn't going very far to sell it. Odds are most are sold to junkyards that sell them to a larger recycler that processes the PGMs. I think it's a bit of a stretch to assume that entire illegal market could move offshore without a trace.
- mieko 4y agoYour local cat thief does not have connections overseas. This market only exists because domestic purchasers aren't regulated.
- googlryas 4y agoNo, but there would probably be some middleman who has connections overseas, and would collect/ship converters for a fee.
