I don't know about your state but here in PA. Its against the law to sell used catalytic converters I think its a national law you might want to look into it.

Not to hijack the thread or anything or bust your b*lls but why can't you sell them? Don't get me wrong the law is the law but really..how many of us really follow the law?
Just upgrading your exhaust is already not "following" the law and how many of us have the "50 state legal" exhaust systems if upgraded? NONE! Even stupid LED's for the car isn't legal but we still do it right? So what's the difference in selling used cats? At least your helping out another member who needs it for smog emissions or returning the car back to stock and not just collecting dust or trashing them.

"The catalytic converter is made with trace amounts of platinum, palladium and rhodium, which speed chemical reactions and help clean emissions at very high temperatures. Selling stolen converters to scrap yards or recyclers, a thief can net a couple of hundred dollars apiece."
