anyone know? removed about 70kg of the stuff from the house today. anyone roughly how much per kg is worth?

from what i can find, about 44p per kg

http://www.metalprices.com/#

from that site i make it 97.5p..

1kg = 2.20462262lb

1lb = $0.87

so 1kg = 2.20462262 x 0.87 = $1.91802168

which is £0.975

so basically he can't even cash it in for an item from poundland? boooooo

it probably changed, it did it twice while i was getting that quote

it started out at $1.something then went to .8something

yup, 80p per kilo is what the local copper thieves get when they gut out derelict buildings etc.

£1.50 a K is what they get for good quality copper, £1 for stuff with shards of insulation still on it

met quite a few copper thieves as I've been going about my latest hobby....

and I did A LOT more of cherry knowle last week, visited on two days, second time three of us, we scared the sht out of two copper thieving kids down a underground service duct, they thought we'd come to beat them up for their copper and now I know how much its worth, i should have, could have done with £50:worship:

Grr, copper thieves, causing lots of probs ATM.. will be good when we have armed guards!!

lead people, not copper. the plumber had the copper. barsteward. he just couldnt be arsed climbing under the floors and ripping out the water and gas pipes like i could!

If I were you I'd hit yell.com, get a metal or alloy merchants number and call them up.

ah good old cherry knowle, all the least stable people i know have had at least 1 "vacation" there, some of them went back 3 times. i dont see how it helps to stick a load of drug addicted persistent youth offenders in the same building together? recipe for mayhem. mental health my arse, its a plastic prison, well it was, is it still open?

£7 a kilo my friend.

The London metal exchange has it down at $2.07 per kilo which is about £1.30 per kg

70kg equates to about £91 but you'll probably get less once the scrap yard factor in their cut

Sorry to disappoint but I've not kept that bucket of lead with me for the past 5 years!!

i once chased a lead thief who had loaded up an escort van with it. there was so much in it, and escort vans were cack anyway, its arse was on the floor and i debated whether to chase on foot or jump in the car
