    used low iron glass

    I have about 20 sheets of 4'by5' low iron patterned glass. I know this stuff isn't cheap but at the moment I am looking at the local dump to get these off my hands. I can't recycle them as container glass, and I only managed to find one panel manufacturer who agreed to take them if I shipped them to him. I'll dump them before I pay to have them taken off my hands. Surely someone buying these from china wouldn't mind paying 10% or 5% of the price they are paying for used sheets?

    Anybody have suggestions on where I might research and find an end user for these before I toss them into tiny pieces?

      You may get a few users from here to bite, but I'd also place an ad on flea bay in the solar panel DIY area, and see what you get.

      Shipping will be very tough, as glass is both heavy, and fragile, local pick-up is best.

        I live in Sacramento but I do get down to LA quite a bit (my daughter is in college there), so I would be interested in your glass, if you still have it.

            Hi I was wondering if you still had the glass available. I live in san diego and can pick it up. I just started to get into solar and am looking for a cheap way to get some glass.

            Thanks
