When I have seen this referenced elsewhere the problem mentioned is
that the copper coating is extremely thin and soon disappears leaving
you with bare steel, not good... Hence, avoid it.
Don't you have any rallies in your area? Or even boot sales. Failing
that most internet companies offer free carriage over a reasonable
amount - not sure if UK companies extend this to EI land, but you have
some in your own country, eg http://www.digikey.ie/
http://ie.farnell.com/ and others. And of course there is always ebay..
