Where can I find nickel bars?

I've seen copper, silver and gold bars, but have never seen nickel bars. Any idea where they are available and are the premiums just as ridiculous as they are with copper?

Former stock broker w/ ~20 yrs. at one company. Spoke with 100k+ people and traded a lot (long, short, options, margin, extended hours, etc.).

NOTE: ANY stocks I discuss, no matter how compelling, carry risk- often
substantial. If not prepared to buy it multiple times in modest amounts without going overboard (assuming nothing really wrong with the company), you need to learn more about the market and managing risk. Also, please research covered calls (options) and selling short as well.

Pure nickel bars are rare. You might have more luck finding nickel shot. Truth be known, much of the nickel mined in the last year went to overpriced stainless steel appliance covers (double price refridgerators, etc.)

Art bars are a small fortune: http://coppercave.com/copper/index.php? ... t&catId=55

KitcoMetals states that there should be 262,000 tons of nickel in what should probably be mostly bar form out there... But I've never seen one either.

You might do a search on feebay in the bullion area...recently they had at least one 999 round, also nickel shot, not sure if there were nickel bars, I think I saw some but I may have just been numb from the cold.
