You are getting robbed at only $2.20 lb. The COMEX price for copper was back over $4.50 lb today.

Here is a scrap dealer in Camden, NJ that pays fair prices for copper http://rfanellessons.com/

As of 04/08/2011

Bare Bright Copper: $3.80/lb.

#1 Copper: $3.55/lb.

#2 Copper: $3.35/lb.



Maybe you can get a big box and ship them your copper. ;-)
