Same here.  The scrap dealers won't pay cash for any metals over $50.  If it
comes to more than that, you have to show them photo I.D. and they issue a
check.

That's how they caught someone who stole and cut up a bunch of TV
transmission line that was left over from an HDTV conversion.  The cancelled
check with his endorsement on the back pretty well sealed the deal.  The guy
is awaiting trial on  felony charges.  It will probably cost him a couple of
years of his life plus having a felony conviction on his record.
