Anyway, welcome aBOARD!

Board basics: If it's green, it means green (what you call quid). If it's brown, flush it down.

In other words, put it in your low-grade pile. There are exceptions to both, but not many.

aw yes, regional dialects seems to have merged since the invention of the www. I do talk to a lot of brits.

we also call them ducats around these here parts.



my low grade pile is getting out of hand... I can't give it away on second avenue.

did you look around the buyer thread here? I recall a guy in Allentown paying decent for low grade, decent meaning like ten or fifteen cents a pound.

convert to quid

I know he was buying a lot of wire at one time. Anyway, you might try and connect with him for advice

I will look for the guy in Allentown that is my back yard. 15c a pound is better than the 6c they give you for light steel.

I get about 1.22 for insulated wire locally, but if he can beat that I'll throw that in with the low grades.
