Nope, they book cable out on company account then scrap it. Not a myth

Boss did that the other week, about 20 drums of 7/029 red, black etc.

The only singles we ever use are tri-rated

Probably hot.....

or had suffered water damage (one of our old suppliers stored some wire in a shed that got flooded and it had to be scrapped)

I think what I'm trying to get at is...

There is a very good reason as to why seemingly brand new cable has been scrapped. If it was perfectly good to use then it would have been!

My point - If it seems too good to be true then it probably is. Go to a decent wholesaler and get the proper stuff. A decent wholesaler and you'll be paying pretty much the same price too!

I even stripped 10ometers of 50mm earth this week, would you of bought it for 120 scrap value... No.

 

[D Skelton]

100m of 50mm Gr/Y? Brand new on the drum? I'd have snapped your arm off for it at £120!

 

[i=p/u]

£200 new.. £120 scrap. I'd say man if you calibre would if paid the shoo
and not take chance...

 

[D Skelton]

Where are you getting 100m of 50mm for £200?! Off the top of my head I paid about £300 last time for 50mm?!

Well I know was gd cable but I ain't storing it anymore..
