    Oops, Updated!

    Gasifier The cost is approx $320/ton. Depending on your region. Not sure they are available other than the New England region!

    Doesn't surprise me one bit that these are a very good pellet. They come from an area that is known world wide as having some of the very best lumber and pellets desired world wide. The only down side with these pellets is not the pellets themselves, but the availability of them. These and North Country out of Alberta are not large pellet manufactures and are in somewhat remote areas, that will have a tendency to be more seasonal in their supply to markets outside their local areas for parts of the year. If your local dealer does get them, my guess would be they won't get a lot, so it might behoove you to pick them up if you see them, as it could be longer periods between loads. They are a very good pellet and I think most everyone would be happy with their performance.

    Note:... I do NOT sell these pellets or am I associated with this company whatsoever....in case anybodies thinks this is a sale pitch.....it's not...they are simply a good pellet

    I am a "newbie" to the pellet stove. I purchased two tons of Easy Heat when I purchased the stove last October. I need to order more pellets and I am having a hard time finding locations close to me, Hunterdon County NJ that sell pellets. Can you give me any advise or direction on how to find dealers? I would purchase the Platinum based on your review. Thanks

    Welcome to the board! Have you tried Lowe's or Home Depot yet? Also, there's a Wood Heat in Flemington but I'm not exactly sure how far that would be for you. You won't find these Platinum pellets down this way yet. These were sent to me by BC Pellet to test/review.
