| I have a few hundred pounds of linotype bars and no longer cast bullets. How much can I get for it? |

If you are talking about the 21.5-23lb ingots you will have a harder time selling those sight unseen. People who know what they are buying will avoid those type of ingots because they could be anything. IIRC several years ago there was a spat of zinced up COWW ingots that went thru in big ingots. They would ring like linotype but were worthless due to the zinc.
With that being said, you can cut the things up, put them in USPS MFRB and sell them on ebay all day long. That bunch or retards will buy anything. Personally If I was selling I would box them up and sell them on Cast Boolits. I would expect to get around $1.75/lb shipped at most. I would take several pictures and also caste a few boolits from the Lino and test them with my cabin tree tester. Then I would post the results and pictures to try to reassure people that I was not screwing them. In reality though, I am not selling and I would be lonely at night without my pile of linotype  .
$0.75/lb for Wheel weights? That is highway robbery. You should go on over to Caste Boolits and just buy COWW already in the ingot from a regular poster. By the time you sort out the steel and zinc weights plus take the clip loss you have to be over $1.00/lb even before you cost in your time. Here is a picture from Monday. Buddy and I bought 894 lbs and I went back and bought another 203lbs on Friday. My local yard has a 55 gallon drum full of sorted stick on wheel weights. I am going to start hauling that off this week.

Should have bought the whole drum full.
