It's all about educating customers. Someone selling some "chopped up wood" that they aquired 4 months ago isn't the same as someone selling premium kiln dried visually pleasing logs that could be used as decorations around a fire.

 

Find out where you are in the scheme, work to this, advertise to this, promote this, sell this.

Think this is the truck

 

If you stacked some on top then you could probably get a cube on that which would be good going at £95.

Who are these cowboys that you are so worried about? Do they hang around in the local saloon shouting "Yeehaa".

 

Indeed??????????:confused1:

 

You chop the logs, you sell the logs.

They may not be trying to under cut you. There is not alot of profit in logs and they could be ringing to find out if they can put their prices up. If one person in your area was bold enough to be 25% higher you may find everyone will follow suit. Logs are in huge demand and are imo a bargain. Most people running log businesses are friendly even on your door step if you get into a price war all that happens is your customers get cheap logs.[/quote
