You don't need to sell them for melt nor for full value of copper. A 50% profit is VERY acceptable even if it is only a dollar an hour for the work I put into it (but I got to cherry pick the good stuff which is where my REAL profit will come from).

Keep another thing in mind. The value of gold, silver and copper IS NOT going up, the value of the paper and electronic digits in the form of the US dollar is going DOWN. I will always choose metals over pieces of cloth with pictures of dead presidents or electronic digits. One will always have value. The other has lost 97% of it's purchasing power over the last 97 years and will lose most of the rest in the next 10 years or so. Sincerely, John Leckrone

I'm a copper hoarder and then some.LOL Why even think about melting? I personally I don't have a safe way to melt anything but cheese and butter at my home anyway.LOL These pre 82(junk copper) will sell/trade just as nice as do junk silver does bagged/rolled up. The mining costs for copper,gold,silver is not going to get any cheaper and will drive these prices up. Go by a spool of real copper wire(not plated)you will see. Most wire now is copper plated aluminum.
