i need some input on something a friend of mine got his hands on some small sheets of titanium they range form 6 by 8 in and 6 by 12 in and they are 1/32 thick is this something any of you can use or want and what would be a good price per sheet

You'd need machinery to use it (Mill with proper end mills). I personally wouldn't have any use for it. I have 1/8" 6065 aluminum plate at home that I use when I need to grind out custom parts.

As for price, I haven't a clue.
 
You will get more money for it from someone who needs it, but titanium scrap is valueble too. Try to find what alloy it is on the sheet, it may say something like 6AL4V. Then call some scrap yards and find out what they are paying per pound.

Here is a link to a list of companies from the Thomas Register who sell it, see what it costs per pound new before you call the scrap yards.
