I thought the range was from less than 5,000 pounds to more than 100,000 pounds (50 tons)
Even I don't pick up boxes every day.. the day job keeps cutting into my hoarding time.. but I do keep a couple of days supply on hand so I never run out of boxes to sort.

HCBTT, I said that is what my 5 year old daughter does.
I can run that many a day. looks like 4000.00 or so. that is about 4.5 hours on my machines.
Dumping on the other hand could be done in 1.5hrs with my brother's help. |

slick.. you got me beat. It takes me a little longer to run them than that.. but I don't have any helpers.. 1 man operation here.. and I still use slow machines. Heck, if I had faster machines the pennies would never last long enough.
I could probably get them prepped to dump about that fast.. but actual dumping takes longer cause I have to spread the dumps out across several branches. Plus, nobody helps me dump. How did you get your brother to help dump? That has got to be handy.  |

He does...sometimes. Because he works all day and sometimes I have to run an errand for him...so he has to pay me back.
Use 2 CU's at the same time...10 miles apart.
OH YEAH...Bags are the KEY. Just pour. |

| There are a number of people with a $1000 in copper pennies and quite a few who sell that much on a regular basis. |

I voted. But I really don't have what would be called a hoard... except when compared to ALL THE PEOPLE I KNOW IN THE WORLD... outside of Realcent members, haha.
I've heard this... "A WHOLE BOX worth of pennies? And you're just KEEPING them? And tell me again why these are worth saving? You're crazy, Aaron."
So anyway, here's the deal. Plenty of people will vote. Plenty of people HAVE voted! And the amounts are just fine - because it doesn't single out the few people with the biggest hoards. How many people on the high end would vote if it actually exposed just how much they had?
Suppose there was a second poll for all the people who voted "More than 100,000." And it increased in increments of 100k up to ten million or so. Now THERE'S a poll that I think people wouldn't want to vote in.
Just my twopence worth Aaron |
