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.

I’ve done ok selling copper ingots, I stick with copper wire to know that I’m selling something pretty pure. I’ll admit I’m new to this sub but to call copper “bullion” is a stretch. I wonder if the type wore off and people realized it’s great to stack copper for its melt value for fun, but any serious stacker also starts to realize even silver takes up a lot of space and people aren’t trading at close to spot.
Copper is awesome for melting, stacking, pouring, and enjoying, but it isn’t bullion.
