It's a good idea to call your local scrap dealer and ask what they are paying. You probably won't want to buy from them because of the markup, but people who would otherwise sell to them will be happy to sell to you at the same price and avoid the hassle of taking it to scrap yard.
Plumbers and remodeling contractors can be a good source. Hospital remodeling jobs, in particular, often yield large amounts of sheet lead.
