For 1.5 inch copper pipe - check any of your larger plumbing distributors
(size is used for sewer/waste pipe)
PVC has replaced it usage over the last 30 years -- in some localities.
With the amount of home building in the Carolinas
- this should not be to difficult to locate. However, you may be surprised
at cost (copper commodity prices have been quite high - lately)

The subject is rather vague, as others have pointed out.

The teensiest hint on exactly what you want, and/or what you plan to
use it for, would probably get you more useful responses. This
includes quantity.

McMaster-Carr at www.mcmaster.com can ship you a large variety of
metal stock, including various grades of copper.

There are size limits on what they can ship, and they may not be the
least expensive option for larger quantities, but always simple, with
a wide selection, and fast.

Happy trails,

Found copper pipe I was looking for. Saw a plumber's truck at local
resturaunt that had some in his rack. Got an 8.5 ft piece for $20.
Mcmaster's wanted 20 plus shipping for a 10ft length. Funny thing though,
The guy didnt get in his truck after he sold me the pipe. Thats begun to
bother me a bit.

For small quatities that would be the simplest. Where McMaster really
shines is for getting really odd types of material.

I'm surprised that the local Home Depot or Lowe's or other home center
didn't have it, even though PVC and CPVC have taken over most of the
market for plumbing.

Tough to get the plastic pipe to conduct RF, though.
