Walked in to ask about what pellets they have he told me they have Clean Burn. I never heard of them but was told they were $9.00 a bag :eek:. Just laughed at him and left. OMG thats 450 a ton. are they crazy who in there right mind would pay that. Has anyone ever used these pellets? not like I am going to get them just curious.

Well that leaves the guy selling them for $260 a $80 profit per ton. :Im assuming he bought them from the other guy.
 
I met up with my local hardware store owner at a big box stocking up for his store. but he never charged that kind of markup. I used to get a charge pad and fill my pockets and hand in the pad to pay. Had everything, including a couple 8 track players:)

If I have 9 bucks for a bag, I wouldn't even worry about the price of pellets.. Because I d be living on a tropical island!
 
By contrast: Went into my local "DoItBest" hardware, and found they had Somersets for 215/ton. Ya never know!

40LB BAG WOOD PELLET
Somerset
Model: P90001
Do it Best SKU: 427648


Online Price: $339.50
that is a good price by you look at what it costs by me ouch
 
Last year I bought Cubies from them. I don't remember what I paid but it was no where near that. Maybe 3.50/bag or something sane like that.....

EDIT: This year a local Agway also has Allegehenys for I think 7/bag too. I told him he was way out there and left....
