price of insulated copper wire

[GA-Silver]

I sold some small insulated copper wire today @ $1.50 a lb. How much does it bring in your area?

[messymessy]

Depends on the type and exact size of the wire. In my area, you would get $1.50 per pound for #12 insulated THHN copper wire. You would get get $1 per pound for #12 Romex. The difference is the recovery rate of the wire.

I got $1.00 a pound early this month

The guy checking me out didn't really look at the type of wite I had. He just dumped it all together and paid me.

Best I ever got was $1.40 in 2008. Great price you got and they didn't even look at it!
