Been scrounging for my new hobby/addiction...cast boolits

I'd like to know what you would consider to be a reasonable price per lb for the following items.

Wheel weights

Linotype

Bar solder 50/50 or 60/40

Pure Lead

I don't wanna hear free...cause that's kinda obvious and I don't wanna hear about the 50/50 Bar solder you bought by the ton at 5 cents a lb in 1975......

Unless of course you are a seller....

I'm a buyer of all of these...I just wanna know what folks in the know consider to be fair prices in todays market

If you got some for sale...let me know...so you could kinda consider this a WTB ad...almost

i can get you a 55 gallon drum full of pure lead sheets,WW, and lead pipes for .12 cents a pound IF they still have some

How about a truck load!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Beladran]

i have been tempted to buy it but living in an apartment there is no place to store it an my house wont be finished till july :tears:

 

[msredneck]

When shall I bring the truck?..aint kidding...I'll take the whole drum

 

[3spop]

My local tire store lets me stop in and empty their used ww bucket as often as I want. I would think they probably shouldn't bring much money if you bought some.

 

[msredneck]

All I need is a couple tons...about a 55 Gal drum...Then I'll be good to go :thumbup:

Somebody Hook me up

 

[c3go4ever]

You had a chance at a 55 gallon drum!

 

[msredneck]

Beladran had or still has a shot at a drum

green with envy

Bump

what are "reasonable" per lb prices for Wheel weights, 50/50, 60/40 Bar solder, linotype, pure lead etc

 

[moredes]

A 'friend' (more an acquaintance) said his friend was willing to sell linotype for $1.50 per pound, and the implication was that the price was pretty good since I was a 'friend'... but I hardly know the acquaintance so take that all for whatever it's worth. I haven't bought linotype in 30 years, and never in MS, so I don't know what a good price would be if it slapped me in the face.

 

[captain-03]

I do have a contact for some Lino - can be had for about $130 per 100lb shipped ... as long as his stash lasts!!

 

[msredneck]

Yep....U got me down for a 100 lbs Lino on your next order correct?
