    WTS: Tin ingots

    I've got 40 ingots weighing .8 lbs each on average (12-13 oz) that I will sell for $7 per ingot, plus shipping.
    Shipping: USPS says most economical is SFRB even for one ingot, so shipping is $7.25 for 1 up to 13 in a SFRB.
    I checked Rotometals and they want $21.00 for 1# ingot plus shipping. $7/ingot looked like a reasonable deal.
    Post what you want here and PM to chinch the deal. Payment by check or MO.

    Update: See my post #7 for more info. 5 Ingots still available.

    Update to update: All SPF

    Are these foundry ingots, 99+% pure?

    I am wondering the same question. Or, are these from "surface mount soldering machines"? Those are 70-30 (tin/lead)

    No, they are recovered from a 40+# ingot I got from a third party. My 235 CB from 2/3/95 alloy cast out at 154 gr with this tin. The ratio of the densities of Lead/Tin is 1.55. The ratio of the densities of my bullets is 1.51. It may not be 99+% pure but close enough for practical purposes. If it was foundry, it would be priced accordingly.
