It seems prices have come back up recently and I now have some space in my garage and bins again.
Oh yeah, $256.89 today
The biggest ticket was the bare bright. I had 36 pounds of that that I got at a garage sale for $5. Spent about 4 hours stripping it over the course of a couple evenings.
Garrage sale to buy wire?? Hmmm, never thought of that.
Nice one parrothead :)
Well, I don't go to garage sales specifically looking for wire. It just happenned to be there. the guy said he got tired of stripping it. Dumby should have taken it in for $1.15 jacketed at the time then.
Oh DUH, I am wandering thru old posts again :))
Sounds like a good day! #2 Insulated is at .70 here :( I am obviously on the wrong coast !
Your not on the wrong coast, your taking your stuff to the wrong yards. I know it would be a long ride for you but I take my #2 insulated to pinellas county and get 1.00#Quote:
