Just checked a familiar website and 2/0 is on sale for $3.49, probably the same as you can get licorice coloured 4 ga for

Darvex website sells 0 gauge wire for 1.92? A foot. But I haven't checked shipping price yet. Where do you buy welders wire from exactly?

I picked some up last weekend, it was right around $3.50 a ft for the 1/0

Just shy of 3 for the 2 gauge if memory serves.

Edit: However Ive heard whisperings of AA Electronics selling similar wire for half the price.
