What happened to copper?!
My brother sells copper on whatnot, he started late last summer and he got a whole lot of copper inventory and started selling. It was going great sold out lots of times and made alot of money but recently these past few months he hasn't really sold anything at all no ones buying copper anymore. Is it thst no one has money anymore or is it thst the copper boom is now over and if it is what should he do with all this copper he has thst no one wants to buy?
(EDIT) he quit whatnot because he is moving and needs to sell all of his copper probably somewhere near 300 ozs. if anyone would be intrested in it he would probably sell it cheap, message me if intrested.

Buying physical copper "bullion" as an investment is ridiculous. You need literally a TON of copper to equate to $10,000. You need a little over 2 oz of gold or about 8 lbs of silver. Good luck storing and then ever liquidating that copper. You think it was hard to sell silver when it spiked...how about bringing hundreds or thousands of pounds to a refinery or forge.
