    All of mine is seasoned to below 20% when sold. Ive sold bucked fresh cut green rounds to a customer once. Another customer likes hickory. If i have it fresh cut and he has room then ill bring it fresh cut and split rather than let me stack season then deliver regardless of time of year. He usually will let me know when he has room. Nice lean to so it stays cleaner for him which he likes. Dont have access to hickory often.
    I dont see a problem with it provided you let them know what they are getting in advance. A happy customer is a repeat customer.

    mat60 thank you! That’s what I was thinking. I’m looking forward to getter a log splitter setup in there and seeing how it works. Take care!

    buZZsaw BRAD thank you for the response and advice! I had heard of guys selling it 50/50 before for lower prices so that’s why I was interested. Thanks again buzzsaw BRAD

    Hey thanks. There is a clothier chain around here whose motto is: "an informed client is our best customer".
