Hi Doug,

Thanks for the reply and I'm sorry it took so long to reply back to you. I
think I was just dreaming and my calculations were a bit off. Ooops. :-)

Thanks for the reality check,

Bob

"I am looking for a source for very inexpensive irons. They should be small

(around 10-15g) and $0.20 to $0.30 each...At the lower end, I could buy a
couple hundred of them."

Hi Bob,

Two cents per gram and classified means at best you could manage $40 to $60
for 2Kg to 3Kg of conveniently sized individuals. Are you sure that is what

you meant, becuase, if you find someone, this collectors behind you will be
worse than a run at the Fiesta of San Fermin.

The best bet will be crushed Campos for over $2 per piece in that price and
size range.

Good Luck
Doug
