One yard I deal with grades #1 insulated if the copper is pencil lead, sold gore or braded #2 insulated smaller than pencil lead yhey don't buy computor ribbin at all. They buy cristmas lights if you clip all the light sockrts off at $.50 lb but some of the #2 insulated wire is finner than christmas light yet they payed me $1.15 lb yesterday. yeah it's up to the yard, that's why I deal with two or three yards.
