    A little west we are getting $ 150 for unprepared iron. Not sure about tin or copper. How long has your price been at this level?

    Last week I got $170 a ton for shred in my steel dumpster. I got $2.90 for 900 lbs of #2 copper on Friday of last week.
    There may a million better places to live than Iowa, but none of them are home!
