    This product is $310 at dealers around here. Wonder how much profit he makes selling them at $240.

    Tells me he is definitely selling at a loss just to move some of his stock until next year. He runs a successful tent rental business so that helps a bit. These Oakies come from the Upton Mass plant. He's obviously solvent enough to hang in there until next season. Like I said, nice guy who opted in at the wrong time. He's got a great attitude.

    He's selling some of his stock at cost and will move what he can fit in covered storage until the next heating season. He wants to stick around so hopefully it works out.

    That is 7 tons outside (no - I'm not telling where I live :p). Still have little over 2 tons inside. Need to move what I can inside this weekend (maybe 3 tons) and then plan out how I'm going to protect the rest for the next year. Hmm, need to update my sig line - it's looking really outdated :D

    Never tried Okie Golds, but I know everyone has overstock pellets this year and deals are everywhere.

    Can someone post the UPC code of the Okies gold?

    Just to reference in the UPC thread.
