    responded to an ad on Craigslist that had some pellets for sale as part of an estate sale. Asked for price and some pics. Response was I have 28 bags for sale at $15 per bag. I asked again what brand they were and said for that price you must be selling rocket fuel and the response was "yes". hahaha:bug::bug::bug:

    That's pretty funny but is almost familiar. Looked at a CL ad this morning that had a whole bunch of unrelated stuff (might have been an estate sale, or someone moving). Wanted $30 for 3 bags of un-named pellets. Didn't even bother contacting to find out.

    $15 is standard retail here, before delivery.

    Would be interesting to know where these folks got the ideas on their prices ????

    I can buy pellets all day long for about $4 a bag.

    Maybe it's the same mentality as some of the fools on Craigs list that want $1000 for a older stove that does not run, has broken windows and needs a paint job ?????
