[michaellane 5,000+ posts]

So I have the chance to get a few hundred fert of both along with some 4gauge I believe. Was wondering if it would be worth it to list up here or not. Id like to give everyone a good deal along with shipping it. Any ideas let me know and ill see if I can finish this deal up or ill just get what I need for myself

I know some places run specials on b stock 2/0 for like $1.60 a foot but you got to spend I think $200 to get free shipping otherwise id assume its around another $30 ontop of your order.....anyone???

i would think 1$ a foot for 2/0 and $2 a foot for 4/0 would be reasonable if its OFC and good quality

I dont know if I could do it that cheap but ill have to see. And yes its welding cable ofc blah blah. I might be able to do the 2/0 around the dollar mark and the 4/0 around 2-3 a foot. Im just not sure what everyone's paying. I saw 40ft of cca for 45 shipped so I figured ya know

4/0 for 2.50 sounds tasty //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/suave.gif.858fc102f7646e678ee8af7e1fbc41d1.gif

You gotta shop around. Check out eBay. I bought some 1/0 earlier in the year for like $2 a foot with $5 shipping.

Flat rate priority boxes via USPS are definitely the way to go. Get a large flat one, coil it up, stuff it in there, and use a ton of tape so it stays stuffed.

Basically you're going to have to figure out how much you can sell it for per foot, figure out how much you'd be paying for it, then figure out what kind of a profit that leaves you remembering you'll have to factor in shipping (unless you just tack that on top of the price for the buyer, making the math easier for you). Determine whether or not the profits are worth your time and effort. If they're lackluster, consider if you'd want to do it just to be a nice guy and to build some feedback.

I'm interested. Wire and supply will do free shipping sometimes, and their ebay store usually has free shipping as well. They sell 4/0 for 2.80 a foot. Just so you have a reference.

It's pretty rare for them to offer free shipping, when I do find it..it's on ebay. Right now on their website it's selling for 2.80 a foot but shipping is roughly 20-30 bucks. For me to get 20ft shipped here it'd be $76

I'm in the market for some 4/0 so keep me updated on what you can do.
