    Exactly. Prices are low for copper in my area and nobody's really paying different prices. There's only one yard in my immediate area the rest are farther away and they usually pay similar prices anyway. I also like my yard because I know them well and they trust me, they don't look at me as a possible bum or crackhead just because I'm young.

    Exactly, if we chased every single grade of material for the highest prices today for each pound you have today any extra $$ if any will be spent paying for gas and your time.
    Please dont do what I did and trip over dollars getting dimes, actually book your sheets against your cost, fuel, time and maintenance of your whole system many times it plays out better in actual net profit to stay local and sell one fair, reputable place. Then when your jammed up and bought that mcm for more than its worth the place you EARNED your reputation from for being a fair customer for THEM comes in handy. I cant tell you how many times latley I was saved by a place I sold alot to for years when the markets go crazy weak he always helped me!!
