That does seem low. The yard by me only has 1 grade/price. "Insulated copper wire". So vacuum cords, power cords, pc cords, electronics cords..... all the same, and about $0.40/lb. Cast and sheet I lump together/dont seperate, and get around $0.20/lb.... might be able to call around and find better prices, those prices do seem low for sure.
