Netted Logs

[Ian C]

Mine are £3:50 a net just like yours and there still cheap compared to the big diy stores and petrol stations, if they say there expensive just send em on there way!

That bag looks value for money m8.so i take it you decided to split those logs after all good luck.

I have delivered logs and customer says price of logs has gone up too much and you dont get much do you. I ask why do you burn them, expecting to get answer like ' an open fire is nice' but no the reply was.

' they are half the price of coal when you compare the btu's'

 

You just cant win ?

 

The general public is used to arborists treating logs as pocket money on a saturday morning. Which is fine until demand out strips supply.

 

I dont think I would get a mortgage deal from Barclays on a saturday morning below cost price half the price of during the week.

Thats a good price for whats in the net. The ones on petrol station fourcourts have less in them & are mainly softwoods plus they cost more. They are just pissed cos they have installed a wood burner (at huge cost) thinking the fuel is free & now they are finding out its not.

 

Tell em to sling their hooks.

Thats a great price mate, i have just returned from homebase and they are selling bags of logs at £6.95 each they are stacked right at the till and the guy on the till tells me thats the second pallet today!!!!

[davetaz]

my local builders merchants is selling nets of logs for £6.96 and kindling for £6.50 ...... don't think much has been shifted though!

[widmere]

If it's good quality you are giving it away - the forecourts etc sell crap at twice the price.

Hi,

 

I mainly sell kindling however i seem to be getting asked for logs more and more.

 

I have started to sell seasoned hardwood logs by the net and builders bags.

 

I am selling the nets shown in the image below for £3.00 each and some people are complaining that they are too expensive. I am selling them at this rate when people pop into the uit and pick one net up at a time

 

Am or too expensive or are people trying it on??:confused1:

 

 

what size are the nets?

[gaz1210]

hi mate i live in chester le street and am starting the same thing, but im with you i think your price reflects the hard graft that goes in to doing the nets, bulk bags whatever....

i had the same price in my mind so i say we stick to our guns and if people dont like it they can always come and chop logs for an hour with us then see what they think huh?

[Topher Martyn]

Yup, charge a fiver, that's a fair price.

 

I sometimes think we all tend to undersell ourselves.

 

I sell smaller bags for a fiver here in the soft south
