Yes, I do it for an everyday "job" Check out http://www.portlandmint.com
Hcbtt sorts but usually doesnt sell much anymore. He has a non coin related full time job.

Ok, so it must just be my luck that I recently started stacking metals a cpl months ago, and I now find out I live in the same city (portland) as prob the LARGEST copper sorter in the nation?!?
I don't sort anywhere near that level, it's just a part time hobby of mine. But, I was planning on adding a cpl boxes of pennies to my current silver sorting each week... would that be just completely futile at this point? I guess I'll find out soon enough but have you pretty much "emptied" the entire portland area HR???

He could probably give you a pretty good deal on as much as you want to stack.. and you wouldn't even have to sort it.

A mini-CTU is the same idea, but with a Small Flat Rate Box; $18 face, approximately 12 pounds.
Thanks very much. That is very helpful!

I'm sure you're right... but I like sorting I'm not working right now because of a shoulder injury that I just had surgery for, so I've got a LOT of time on my hands. Sorting is just a way to pass the time in a somewhat productive manner... a hobby that produces small profits (very small at the moment ) Once I'm back to working ft again I'm sure at that point I'll be happy to just purchase the copper rather than sort it.
