So I've been walking around the city on my lunch and wandering into some less affluent parts of town exploring all the old houses & renovations going on and i'd been noticing a lot of CRT TV's at the curb with the cases smashed. I thought it was weird then the other day I saw one where the yoke was missing. Every time I passed one I looked a little closer and those CRT's were missing their yokes also. I assume this is a copper scrapper doing this? How much copper is usually in those things? |

about 2 pounds ed |

copper round here pays a little over 2 bucks a pound. it's actually worth it to strip that stuff out and sell it to the scrap |
| ed12:
it was here also >here< key word 1.54/lb now ed |

We have a warehouse in a not so great area of Phoenix and about once a year the phones go down for a couple days because the transients in the neighborhood would break into the phone box across the street and steal the copper.. Prices must be down because it hasn't happened in about 2 years. Or they put a better lock on it... |
