    I'm gonna start listing my wood as artisanal. Sell it for 2500/cord. Undercut their price. If I sell 1 cord evey 3 months like that I'd be ahead of this years sales.... only about sell about a cord a month.
    If I could sell 2 cord a month at that price firewood would be fulltime.

    It certainly does make one wonder if any fool buys.

    Looks like something marketed towards wealthy individuals who would rather have wood than money to burn, but quite a profit for sure. Sometimes i wish i could keep my saleable firewood "cleaner".

    From time to time, I'll end up with some real filthy or muddy splits, and will wash them with the hose in the wheelbarrow, sometimes even brushing off the really caked dirt. But, I keep this wood for personal use.

    I just clicked on a few of the woods they have for sale. All I can say is I need to sell off my Oak and pay off my mortgage... Wow, that's spendy wood...

    You just to have to get some “artisan” packaging for your wood. I really thought the advertisement was a gag at first. I’m still laughing at the “best firewood-2017” on their website. Seriously.

    That’s too funny, I happened to watch that video last week and here it is again. The guy looks like a tool. Like he has buttery smooth hands that never worked in his life. Couldn’t watch the whole video, too corny the way he rubs down the wood and describes it. The “one match fire” that it doesn’t actually show getting started was too much and I turned it off. Must be a lot of dumb and/or rich people for him to stay in business

    I think the dealers in the first link watched this video for inspiration for their new business... LOL


    Keep in mind the video is a joke.... The people selling wood for $999. a 30"x 4' x 4' is real. (or an EXTREMELY well done spoof)

    I just watched some of their videos on YouTube. There is one where there is a guy delivering these people their wood. You’d swear he’ s saying “kill me”under his breath, lol
