I had an interesting pm conversation yesterday. I have seen the guy's here on CB buy a steady stream of clean, smelted, ingotized lead at $1.00 a pound since I came onboard here.
I have been led to believe that in the last couple of years there have been thousands of pounds of raw dirt, trash, WW, spit, and razor blades bought by CB members to be sorted, cleaned, and smelted by themselves, to the tune of .80 cents a pound for final product after *they* pour it.
I am hard pressed to believe this, but maybe I don't know a good deal when I see it?
