Who is interested in a copper bulk buy? I'll be getting full sheets of 24 gauge copper and cutting them into a 9x12in (approximate) size (copper is not from a roll) The cost for this one will be $8.25/sheet, which comes out to $11/lb or square foot (as 24g weighs 16oz/square ft) Minimum order is 3 sheets ($24.75), though you are welcome to order more than that to take advantage of flat rate shipping. As a comparison, Rio's lowest price on 24g copper is 12.75/square ft. if you order 12 or more; metalliferous is $12.10/square ft. if you order 12 or more (before shipping)
Your 9x12 sheets can be cut into smaller pieces at the rate of $1 per cut,a minimum width will apply. I'll be making use of a big shear so there won't be distortion. Copper is completely uncoated and great for patina use- since it is a raw material it may have small scratches.
Shipping will be additional, flat-rate within USA, plus insurance. Assume medium flat rate box for price estimate, though if I can fit your order in a smaller package I will do so.
