<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1264288, member: 26302&quot;]Its an industrial metal. You can buy it near spot, but only for large purchases. Its the same as buying stainless, cold rolled, nickel, etc. These &quot;spot&quot; prices are for large accounts, multi truckload business. I have bought copper at spot in business, but to get there you have to be a sizable account and a continuous buyer. These large mills have no time for small quantity since they have millions of tons to move. Therefor, any spot purchases probably go through 4 or 5 hands before they can get in the form, and small enough quantity, for someone to buy.</p><p><br /></p><p>If someone wanted near spot, go to a recycler would be my suggestion. Offer to buy some scrap off of them for a little over spot. If you are lucky maybe they will let you cherry pick the type of scrap you like for a small premium.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
