I would agree. There is a business a couple blocks away that sells
magnet wire to local rewind shops. The last 10 lb spool I purchased was
$53, but it's been quite a while since I purchased it. Last year I
purchased some wire off of eBay on two separate occasions. One spool was
fine, but the other was under weight. And thus the problem with eBay
purchases of wire (you don't know until it's in your hot little hands).
