Look what I saw yesterday at the gas station. This 3 cords or whatever is on this truck must be worth a fortune.

The worker guy problly is like, there is another of those internet obsessed firewood guys. Pretty sure he saw me take the oic. Sure looks like he is looking!
 
I think there at that location there $4.99 or $5.99? Have to look next time. I'm interested in what the seller gets that's delivering them. Should of asked.
 
If you can get the outlet, it is possible to make a few dollars, but that does not interest me. It might have in my younger years though.

Most of the those bundles at the retail level add up to about $1200 a cord. I am not sure what they go for at the wholesale level, but would guess around $3/bundle. Can't see it being to profitable for less than that. Interesting use of the potato type bags vs the shrink wrap around here.
 
Last year the same station used plastic bags to put The wood in. Like the same bag they put mulch in but smaller.

Bet they paid $300 easy for it
