so long as it is a true cord (not a face cord, rick, truckload, whatever) $50 for a cord would be a GREAT deal. Hell, I'd buy 2 cords right now!
a full cord remember is 4x4x8 or 128cu ft.
If you have the storage and it is a full cord and it is DRY, then go for it. and as Andy said, buy 2!
As a face cord (usually measured around my parts as 1/3 a cord or 16inches x 4 x 8) then that had better a delivered price since that is soft woods.
If you burn part-time or for aesthetics, then go for it. Dry wood is dry wood. But it is going to burn differently than hardwoods if that is what you are used to.

Then what, start paying to see a shrink????
Even if I could get hardwood for $50 a cord, I would still cut/split/stack because it helps me keep my sanity.
