    Two weeks ago (our last load of copper) was $3.00 - hopefully it goes up with our next delivery.

    I am sort of forced to a smaller yard to sell my stuff beings I don't have the capability of taking in loads more than a truck bed and small trailer. Copper here went up to 2.45.

    We got really lucky and just found a scrap guy who will come out to our house and pick up the scrap. Like that isn't wonderful enough, he paid us $3.20 for bare bright! Amazing!
