In my continuing search for lead, I came across http://nuclead.com.
They advertise selling scrap lead.
I talked to a sales rep briefly on the phone and was told to submit a request for a quote. I did as requested asking for pricing on a minimum order of 100 pounds.Nuclead has tons of clean lead in drops or shavings (chips). We sell this lead for a fraction of the market price. It is ideal for customers that have tight budgets that do not require material certifications.
For shipping costs, they state that for common carriers it is cost plus 40%. So I'm guessing if I want it UPS, the shipping fee is 40% of purchase price for my order?
Has anybody dealt with these folks? I'll be sure to post their reply.
