  5. I say retrain your customers. in my experience people will buy whatever you have for sale as long as you are honest about what it is. that goes for green vs seasoned and also softwood vs hardwood. i always sell wood as it comes and leave it up to the customer to season it if they want to. i think we need to look to the way other countries do it - ie the customer buys it in and stores it and uses it when they are ready rather than the typical customer here that buys it today for burning tonight. they need to remember they're not buying gas or electric from a multinational company, they are buying a local product from (usually) a small company. i do think though that honesty is key as it educating the customers. rant over
