Discription looks like a nice pellet. But is it really what your gonna get? Best to try a few and see first hand. Nothing like a real world in your own stove test for giggles!
 
For that price, you can't go wrong. If you don't like it, so be it, it's 159...
 
I'd be all over a few bags for that price. I'm going to guess that they're softwood/beetle killed pine pellets since they're in southwest Wyoming.

Get some and try them. If they are good, get your ass out there and buy as many of them as you can afford and/or have room for before they are all gone. As a dealer, I can buy pellets cheaper than most other dealers because we sell a whole boat-load. But $159/ton, I can't even get them that cheap. Run Forest, Run!!! Before "littlesmokey" out there in Utah buys them all up! (Now there is a name from the past huh?)

Did you read his "Final" thread?

At that price, I would buy at least a ton. Even if there garbage, it can be your shoulder pellet.

How picky is that 500? Quite a few have them now? Does it need daily tending?
 
With freight prices going up and they are halfway decent I would lay in as much as you could shelter-afford. If it would have been better weather I would have fired up the 1 ton and bought pellets from Menards for 3.49 a bag. At least another years worth. Still 10 degrees below normal today at 21:(

His last one that I remember was when he was pissy about everyone coming here and asking the same questions over and over.....I was just a lurker back then visiting once every month or two. Now, I poke my head in every day. Last night I was reading some of his old stuff....what a strange dude. He actually checked in back in May 2012, according to his profile. Im sure he is still here every day, just under a new name. Just a strange critter, always angry and rude.

He was burning the Arbor pellets last I knew.
 
So you can't pay more by the bag if you don't buy a ton? I don't know if I like that scenerio!

Now remember this guy is not from the northeast. He can probly get better for not a whole lot more $$$. I can buy Marth hardwoods this year for $169, but probly won't.

The politics are the same even though the nickles and dimes are slightly different. In other words the game is prolly the same, Best possible pellet for the least possible price?

Yup and the only way to know if the pellets are worth anything is to try them first.

going to buy a ton and shoulder them...

Yep.. Cheapest pellet in my Hood, just so happens to be the best!! Dont associate price with quality.

Somersets for $175 several times a year, for several yrs straight now :) Mama said to stock up this Spring. Only gonna feed the new stove, the best. Although Enerzones are not really pellet picky anyways ;) (did you catch that Jay?) Thats the stove that I believe I will be getting. Still working the financial thing out with Mama. Just sold my "Baby", so I better get it!!

Rub it in! Rub it in! Rub it in! Sets for $175 ... *#*$^&*#$^*&Q#$^Q_(#$@Q^!!!!!!!!!! :ZZZ
 
Yep, I caught it. Which model?



Here I though he was going for the M55 steel. I guess momma didn't want him looking at this all day!


The 50,000 BTU Eurostar (Bottom feed). I think I had everyone thinkin the M-55 and to be honest, there is a Steel M*55 demo model for just over $2,000 that I really considered. But this is a pretty high tech stove (2 blowers for combustion).

I'm almost positive this is "The One" :) I have been waiting for.
