Wire is getting expensive!

I bought a 6" length of wire, nothing connected to either end, for £3.28.

Without telling us what sort of wire and from where purchased, this is mean ingless.

75 ohm RG59 coax cable is £14 a metre if you buy it from Russ Andrews.

Its cheaper by the reel, then flog the rest on! Brian

Somewhat of a bargain for Russ Andrews.

[Davey]

Agreed. He must have had a forgetful moment when he priced that one.

Watch the website for a correction.

have you checked the price of platinum wire lately?

[spuorgelgoog]

Yes, you'd have got a pack of 10 metres for that price from Tandy!

I went to buy some silver wire (it was for someone making jewlry). It was 12" long and I had no idea how much it would be but was expecting several quid. It was 50p (this was some years ago).

Plated or Solid?

For solid at current prices ..

e.g.

1/2 Metre 2mm Soft Fine Silver Wire 99.99% Price: £18.68 (~?27.09) (Excluding VAT at 20%)

Might be fun to see a Big Clive tear-down one of those ;-)

[Andrew Gabriel]

Interesting - it was probably 0.5mm (although it was in SWG at the time) so it's only 2.5x more expensive now.
