price for split logs

[farmer rod]

i split my logs and they go in a big heap.... one heap has been there a year.. the other heap is fresh cut wood.. no difference what so ever to me

You must agree there is a difference in what they are worth

[ThrustSSC]

yeh thats the thing people seem to think that because its green they pay less im with nick on that one.

 

I'll have a word with Glenmorangie to tell 'em they should be charging the same for the 25yo as the 10yo! :-)

[hardtop110]

explain please

Opportunity costs of the cash tied up in the cord and the use of the space to season it.

If its worth the same to you, then why bother seasoning it at all?

[nick channer]

cos very few buy green unseasoned wood perhaps...

[dave fox]

for sure one you can burn now the other next year , but they still cost the same to get to that position! if anything the ones in the green would have cost more (higher cord price, fuel price, wage's hike,ect ect)

[peds_i]

do many people buy green logs

[hardtop110]

cos very few buy green unseasoned wood perhaps...

 

So not worth as much then............

[nick channer]

i sell cordwood in artic loads for £50-£55 a ton.. whether its green or fully seasoned you only get same volume logs fron a load so why would they be cheaper......

also i can get 5.2 cube of really dry mixed hardwood on my truck, thats 4 1.3 m loads... couldn't do that with green beech therefore my delivery costs will go up....

cos very few buy green unseasoned wood perhaps...

 

So not worth as much then............

 

you just wait till its seasoned surely.... if you found a £5 note... would you sell it for £4......
