Group buy any one?

Current scrap price of brass is $2.13 per pound. So it will take probably at least $3000 to buy this lot.

Don't forget to factor in the ridiculous freight charges to get it to IN.

At 2.13 a pound thats over 6600$ . Plus you pay a 10% buyers premium and sales tax. Even a uhaul from Arizona you looking at several hundred extra dollars for flight there and rental/fuel expenses back. Its just not worth it.

Agreed, too much hassle. If it was local it would be a different story...

The smaller lots sell for alot more as there is a bigger market willing to buy them. From what I've been observing anything less than 3/4-1 ton sells for regular market prices per 1000. I believe the lot of 600 #s at Crane sold for around 9$ per #.

I think Jerry Miculek buys his brass this way
