Shop for a new yard that pays more. In fact you may want to check with one of our member/buyers. High Voltage Processing is in your area of the country but I don't know how close. His listed web site is not working but you can pm him through the forum. Mike.Originally Posted by npegger

I think you need to find another yard. #1 insulated should bring about 3x that much if you cut off the ends. #2 insulated around $1 lb. Even if your area is 25% lower than mine, you still should be twice that number for #1

#2 insulated should be closer to a dollar a pound. I'd find another yard.

Did you happen to take your wire to AAA Metal Scrap in the Strip District. I took some computer wire down there a couple of weeks ago, and that is what they paid me. Off topic, but FYI, AAA is the only place i've found in western PA that will buy low-grade circuit boards.

I did and I like the guys at AAA always friendly always helpful since this is more of a hobby and a way of cleaning up for me I do not always need to squeeze the most out of a load. What was the rate they gave you on low grade boards?

They were paying .10/lb for the low-grade. Not fantastic, but the best I could get without driving a great deal further away from home.
