    $500 for 2000 pounds of starters??

    No problem. There'll be a SMALL delivery charge. It's approx 1500 miles.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    Well then, just break 'em down a little so they don't take up as much room.

    They add it to the new steel in the foundry..it actually strengthens the steel...Where i live at we have several john deere factorys...They use between 10 to 20,000lbs per day of copper...and thats just one foundry.
