I've been offered Sycamore - what's a fair price?

Oh yes.

 

If it actually is 8 tonne then it will make around 15 cubic meters. So at £6.67 + processing time and fuel per cubic meter your on to a winner ;-)

 

I process a lot of sycamore and find only a shade over 1.5m3 for each ton is a typical yield. You can squeeze out 2m3 if you short fill the bags and don't lift them ever otherwise the top 6 to 9 inches will be air.

 

I realise this is going to break the economics, at more like £10/m3. Hopefully the OP won't price according to the purchase prices as its unlikely to be mathced again. If he doesn't then he should be able to turn £100 into comfortably over £1,000. Thats a level of return most of us can only dream of except for the tree droppers amongst us.
