- Computer0 1mo agoI’d say $6 is == ~$5
- Aurornis 1mo agoThe scrap price is what you get for bringing scrap copper to a recycler. Not an expert, but I assume $5/lb is the peak value for dropping off nearly perfect condition copper. Not sure how much they’re actually getting for stripped copper wire.
- tomjakubowski 1mo agoI would also think that unscrupulous scrap buyers would offer a lower price for copper which has obviously been stolen or stripped from public works, since they are taking on more risk by buying it.
