Copper is on its way back up so is aluminum. I don't see it going to 4 dollars again but 3.50 isn't out of sight.
As long as prices are still up the first part of March, I'll be happy. My prices are set on a monthly basis.

I'm surprised there's not a thread with 50 pages on this topic. This seems like a valuable way to track procing over time & around the country.

Wish I had a local place to sell power supplies. Low grade boards too. So far I just stay away from low grade stuff because I have no where to sell it that makes sense.

I'd say save them and make the 4 hr trek over to Massachusetts, but I just realized that you are the same distance to Mario as it would be to me.Originally Posted by HipoGear

Where are you located?

Would like to know where you are located. In another post you mentioned the big yards getting 1910 a ton for Al, but these prices are pretty much in line with where Al has been stuck forever.

Not going to mention yard by name but I'm sure locals know. Have to say after being to 5 different yards in Buffalo, (moved to Jersey last year) this was the best, most efficient non-ferrous sale I have ever had. Guy was pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable. Will definitely be my go to yard here.

Giving it away

No he's not giving it away because I saw his ticket.

Who are you referring to?

done!
If you want to compare it check out the numbers on the very first post of this thread. I was getting over $3.00lb for Cu when I started out and that makes the current prices harder to for me to get excited about. Mike

The MLC was my bucket of extruded aluminum. It was mostly heatsinks, I'm not sure exactly what MLC means though.
