Historical material recovered from the former site. Names, contacts, services and commercial claims describe that period; they are not current MetalSite offers or affiliations.
The recovered announcement dated 22 August 2001 said Management Science Associates had signed a letter of intent to purchase MetalSite assets. It described a proposed purchase by Metals Supply Alliances, including software and the MetalSite and ScrapSite names.
Although the original headline used “Buys Assets”, the body describes an intended transaction. This page therefore records the announcement, without treating it as independent proof that the transaction completed.
The document does not establish ownership or corporate continuity for the present website.
This page summarizes a recovered historical record. Former personnel, products, user counts and business arrangements do not describe the current MetalSite service.
