    My stash is around 5.5 ton and I'm going to keep buying to replace whatever I burn between now and the end of this heating season :thumbs:

    Added 4 more ton of the $99.50 per ton pellets from Lowes. My stash sits just shy of 13 tons.

    All Lowes near me have been sold out for days. I stopped by the closest in Rochester yesterday and there are about 50-60 ton behind the store with 15-20 being Inferno Gold. Today I was there again and was told by cust service that all they have are Greene Teame a 6.98/bag, but this person didnt even know there were any behind the store.

    So, I track down someone that might have a clue as to whats up. He told me that they were sold out on day one-even he could not get one for himself the day they went on sale. Worst part is that most of them were bought by someone that is a re seller and going to make $$ on them. That just sux

    I hope they are all damaged and wet for this reseller

    True. Many of the pallets had physical damage to them. What they had was Geneva, Nations Choice, Inferno and Freedom Fuel (I think). I mentioned 50-60 ton, there likely were more than that. The Inferno were pretty much in tact with a pool of water on top of each pallet. I could tell that there was moisture under the covering bag-what gets inside the pellet bag from there, who knows.

    I have no issue with fellow burners getting the deal. Finding out that they were likely scoffed up by a re seller, that irked me.

    I guess it wasnt meant to be.

    Yes it does. Gotta figure some small shops and even individuals are going to try to capitalize on this. Suspect they are buying them cheaper at Lowes than they could direct from a traditional supplier. Not sure how well they are going to make out though. If this upcoming season is anything like the one we're in now, they may be sitting on that product they just scammed for a good long time. Then you'll be saying sux to be them.

    I hope the Bedford Lowes has at least 4 tons behind the store - and that they have my name on them (the ones to be delivered in April).

    I am a little worried as well that my delivery won't show up this Thursday. Got my fingers crossed that there are no issues.
