Looks up a DPF price chart to give you an idea (prices change drastically and most charts are in US funds)

Look on Kijiji for "we buy DFP" adds and call ALL of them (some make different adds but same phone number). Go with the highest bidder. I don't have the info for they guy I went with but he buys from most of the buyers then ships them. so we cut out the middle man and he offered me a couple hundred more than the others.

Or just go with the first guy to make you an offer and be done with it. It was a mission for me not to get swindled on this since I have been burn from scrap guys in the past.
Found some guys in Spruce Grove that have a store front. Told me the number to look for and what each one would be worth. Handed me the cash once we verified the numbers. Safe and professional and not some fly by night guy that shows up and says oh that's only worth $100 bucks after promising $500. Called True North Converters. Take batteries for more than the recycle fee you get at the shop as well.
