Betwen 75p and £1 per kilogramme. Might be best cashing in before the World Cup, because once that's over, there will be 23 pairs of feet from the England side flooding the market.

Get hold of some scrap bits of marble or granite and wrap them into parcels with the lead.

If you get busted go ballistic, and rant and rave about those bloody thieving gypsy f*****g b@st@rds etc!

went on to that site given by freeze the secret..very helpful lead £950 a ton.

phoned my local scrap merchant offered me £700 a ton,contacted another firm offered me the going rate 950.

so if any one as surplus metals to cash in,make sure you shop around.
