Can anyone tell me why a 1-1/4 copper 90 is $2.92 at pex supply.com and everywhere else I look they are anywhere from $6.50 to $9.00. Do they carry cheaper quality products or would they be a sufficient supplier?

My prediction is that copper prices are going to fall at least 50% in the next year. If you can hold out till then, you'll get your fittings a lot cheaper !

Good luck with that prediction! Copper was already down 20% in May from 12 months prior. It's been on the increase since then. If the economy improves and demand picks up I think you'll be hard pressed to see any major drops in the next 12 months. Most metals have been on the rise recently. Sheet/coil steel is up 84% since last June.

Auminum, copper, and just about all other base metals are all falling sharply in response to reduced demand. The high prices from last year were nothing but speculation of a global recovery. It ain't gonna happen. The "debt bombs" are just starting to go off around the globe and the pain is just beginning. I'll stick with my prediction that copper will see $2 long before it see's $4 again, if ever again in my lifetime !
