I am a pack rat. When we got ready to sell our previous home, I had significant qualities of copper etc. If, I recall scrap copper was like $3,00 a pound. Our home had copper leaders and gutters on it. Frankly we recently looked at pictures on Zillow of our home we sold five years ago. The people who bought is obviously have put a lot of money into it. They must have hired someone to put new leaders and gutters on the home. They are now the thin aluminum that we all have here. I doubt the contractor told them what the scrap value was for the copper leaders and gutters.
