Whats the law these days on selling copper to a scrap merchant?
Got about 500kg saved up, but do you need to be licensed to sell it?

If you have half a ton do not let it go for £2.10, I got £4.20 for my last lot the other week. £2.10 is a laugh

Half a ton of copper is worth a lot more than a grand.

No regs at the moment thus why there is such a problem with people nicking copper and lead.

It's good except when the tax man can now get hold of the paper trail from the company and charge everyone.
