The home depot in Bangor, ME has 75 tons of fireside ultra pellets for $299 a ton stacked in front of the store.

Just an FYI for anyone interested - never burned them, so I dunno how those are.

please let us know when they start to lower the price.
 
Glad to see they are getting a lot of them in, with such quantities maybe they will start to lower prices. I still need 2 more tons, but I won't be buying them for $300 a ton unless I completely run out and oil stays higher than the cost of pellets.
 
i also would like to know if they sell them with oil being low price
 
I saw them, price too high, I can wait. They will have to dump them come spring.

I burned fireside ultras last winter and they were awesome. But I agree with the others....wait wait wait...prices will plummet.
 
I just paid $350 Can for a ton of the Maine (Green Heat Pellets) here in New Brunswick ,guy looked kinda pissed when i walked in and asked if this is where they were scalping Pellets,lol.Took a min to sink in, then he gave me a dirty look,hahah.But i bought them anyways..
 
All the Home Depot in this area, N/E Ohio and on the PA side have been selling pellets at $6 a bag since mid summer and still have that same price. They do not get pellets that much but when they do they sell out fast. Maybe I should get rid of the warehouse and stack my pellets outside and charge more. Just got a truck in today and they went right into the warehouse without a drop of water hitting them. Should break the 2,000 ton mark for this year real soon.

I bought a couple bags of these Fireside Ultras at HD to try. I burned on bag and that bag was the hottest best burning bag of pellets I have used yet. I do worry about them being stored outside though. I knwo they are shrinkwrapped, but condensation will still soak them. We have had 50 degree temp swings around here in the last week. I agree $300 a ton is pricey, but i doubt I will buy them on clearance in the spring after they have been outside all winter.
 
Saltair , you, I , and a bunch of other people won't buy them . But I'm sure next fall there will be alot of new pellet piggies out there , telling us how much they got their pellets for.

But how wet will they be by then?
