    I know the guy you're talking about he gave me 3 ripped / taped bags a couple weeks ago I was checking out out some other brands and not paying attention, the guy I usually deal with loading was on vacation

    Was actually looking around online today as I am getting low there's a shocker, and I was checking those out as they are reasonably priced but would be a long haul for me. Never know might make the trip only obstacle is I will be working Saturday's for a while and don't remember if they were open on Sunday, will have to check.

    I always would enjoy my trips there and shoot the breeze with the guys but will probably go somewhere else until he's gone.

    Bucks Pellets Joe is about 50 minutes or so away from me but I always enjoy the trip down and get to shoot the chit with him for a bit. Plus it's an easy drive to and from his place. It's even better when my co-pilot will711 comes with

    I've never dealt with them, I don't know why even though I'm close by maybe because their is nothing in Berkeley that brings me that way, good to deal with Russell?

    I have not had any issues with the Platinum bags.
    North Country... an occasional one that did not seal well,
    and it can open unexpectedly.. but not very often... thin bag, too.
    But great pellets..

    I think the real issue is with that one warehouse worker who always seems to be taping up a bag .
    Probably a bad forklift operator

    That lady’s name is June and she is great to deal with. They are right off exit 11 off 24 which is the paddelford st exit. They’re not always on site so you’ll have to call ahead and she’ll meet you there. I used to get my old whitybag okies there. Haven’t gone there in while.
