Mine cost me 50 bucks but the last 5 only had about 7 pounds of junk combined.

I got my first free bucket yesterday. I haven't sorted all the junk out yet, wrappers, o-rings etc... and it was a short, 3.5 gal bucket. but free is free. I know I can pay 50.00 for a fiver about 30 min from here. I did see coww and soww. can't wait to see how much it weighs after sorting and smelting.

A case of beer normally helps the exchange rate . . .

this is true, but the offer was made to me. so I will take what I can get while the gettin is good. by the way it was 100# with the bucket. there were some steel on top of the bucket that I found while pokin around. still need to sort through them all the way.

My usuall price is $30 per 5 gal. bucket full to the top. I take a couple of pails with me to divy up the load. Might be a tad high in price but having it is better than still looking for it.

I paid $54 for a 5 gallon bucket about 3 inches from the top yesterday, and feel like I got a good deal for around here.

My last bucket I paid 25 cents a pound and the shop let me sort out the zinc and steel.
