midwest preseason pellet prices. kinda makes you go hmmmmm doesnt it!
Code:
i dont think there is any shortage of stoves in general. just harmons. i talked to aes/magnum the other day and they arent having any problems filling orders. as a matter of fact, i was told that if they had to, they could ramp up production by 300% if necessary.Ossy said::cheese: In regards to getting hosed here in Maine by the previous poster...I believe its that way in the New England region due to market forces. A lot of people are buying out of nervousness and driving up the cost. It almost appears that a number of people have bought more than they actually need for the winter in some cases!! My thoughts is that the demand will decrease going into Oct as many people will have got their fill of pellets...and supply will increase because producers will shift into overdrive...so there is real potential that costs will go down IMO.....LOL, especially since there isnt enough stoves to go around... ..just a thought!
Best regards!

you have no idea what a cul-de-sac is until you take a look at the upper peninsula of michigan where a lot of the pellets are made in the midwest region. yet their retail prices are in the $160-$200/ton range. WHY????Ossy said:You got that right...we are at the CUL-DE-SAC of the U.S....of course it beats being at the other end of the pipe line where the Mississippi flows out... :smirk:
Fire It Up said:We have 3 pellet mills in Maine and we have multiple great brands of pellets made right in Quebec that when shipped come right down route 201 and 95.
It think we are in a great situation compared to other areas

Where are people paying 150.00 a ton regularly for premium pellets? I will go get some.

Iowa and Michigan is a pretty far drive from Maine lol. Pellets in the Auburn/Lewiston area are $270. a ton up to over $300. per ton and last I heard Dysarts up in your area has a long waiting list and their prices are going up too last I heard.
