    Goodness, if I lived about 100 miles closer, and didn't already have 7+ tons on hand, I'd go for those Cubex!

    I used NC when they first arrived up here and were the sleeper pellet of the year at a good price. They were a great pellet but unless they have improved, I dont know if I would say better than Crete. Probably SP were a tick better as well. Just my opinion though and the NC were definitely a capable ans upper tier pellet that I would grab at 229 for sure.

    Skana and Dakeryn are the two people bringing in LaCrete and SP that I know of. Both have a stated flat pricing policy - as in all dealers are supposed to get the same pricing. shipping varies depending on the distance, of course. those prices quoted are not a slimmer margin, they are negative margin by a fair bit, particularly the SP. It doesn't make sense that NEWP in southern NH is priced higher than LaCrete coming from northern Alberta by truck/rail/truck. we'll see how this plays out.

    Thanks for the feed back on the prices . They do have a very large warehouse and can buy in extreme volume so maybe that is a factor also I totally don't understand the price on the NEWP unless they're unloading last years stock because they told me they wouldn't be carry NEWP anymore which made me happy why waste the space . :D

    you have to factor in the cost of money. large inventories on hand have to be paid for... there's no floor plan. and you have to pay for that large warehouse whether you rent it or own it. just the taxes on my 19,000 square foot building are $23,000 a year. add in repairs, utilities, etc and a mortgage if you have one.
