Plate drops up to 12" x 60" in Mic 6, Alca 5, 6061, and M1 are $1/pound, plus shipping if you aren't in the Milwaukee WI area to pick up. (I paid $1.82/lb shipped.) Minimum order $30. You can limit your search to 12" widths and avoid seeing items too wide for the sale price.☺
Ordering process is: you fill your "wish list" with drops and request a quote, then they respond with quote. If any drops you request aren't available, they'll let you know and try to offer something similar. They don't have online credit card processing; you either fax or provide over the phone. Clearly oriented to business, but they have been very friendly, patient, and helpful to me as a hobbyist.
Note that if you order more than 70 lbs, they default to shipping freight. At some point that's cheaper, but not in the 100lb range, so when I asked they have split out into a couple packages each under 70 lbs to avoid excessive shipping charges.
I can't recall seeing a scratch or dent on any of the drops I have purchased from them in the past, cast or wrought. They must run a really clean shop.
