    600K tabs for 2 grand is better than scrap price.

    A tab weighs .0104 oz, according to Logan.

    times 600,000 divided by 16 oz/lb gives 390lbs.

    2000$ divided by 390 lbs is $5.13/lb. compared to scrap aluminum at 50 cents per lb. +/-


    What I want to know is who is crazy enough to pay 5 bucks per lb for aluminum scrap!! Or what it is used for!! That many tabs will make a LOT of crafty stuff!! Ebay 600 lots of a thousand tabs for 5 bucks each?
