[QUOTE="Detecto92, post: 1490280, member: 75105"]Another pet peeve of mine. Copper is NOT bullion. Bullion is precious metals. Gold, Silver, Platinum, Rhodium etc. Copper, Nickel, Aluminum, Zinc, Tungsten, are base metals. They [SIZE=4][B]are not bullion.[/B][/SIZE] If you ask me "copper bullion" is a huge con, they sell for upwards of $12 a pound. Copper is only $3.46 on the open market. It always makes me laugh how the people who sling copper want people to "invest in copper" and they keep saying "copper is the new silver". Well, if your buying copper for $12 a pound, your going to sit on it for a good 30 years or more before it EVEN becomes worth what you paid for it. Copper will never be the "new silver" because Copper is a Base Metal, and Silver is a Precious Metal, it's simple as that. Invest in Gold and Silver. Those are PRECIOUS metals, they call them PRECIOUS for a reason. They are rare. Copper is PLENTIFUL, so is Zinc, Aluminum and Steel. It's a fool's game to invest in base metals. Now they are selling "aluminum bullion" on eBay. /Rant[/QUOTE]
