Maybe its a good time for a group buy of 20' cargo containers?

I could use 2.....

I've found several old ones locally for. . . only $2,800 each! thud

Insane. I got a 40' in fantastic condition for like $2k delivered and
with fresh paint. Of course the price of steel has gone up since then,
but not that much.

The used 40-footers are $3,200 around here, repainted and refurbed
with chest-high latches (an actual improvement!) The $2,800 was for a
refurbed 20-footer, but still... You can buy them brand new from the
makers for about $4k.


You can buy em at the terminals for about $800-1000 in good shape. The
rest is transportation costs.

Terminals? Like San Pedro, or what?
