Re: Now that's a Burl

I help him set a reasonable price on the burl. .40-.50/lb is what I recommended for a burl that size and would be an excellent price. I have already put him in contact with My buddy at Fruitwoodz in fresno so bid fast!

There is a disclaimer on the auction, that he also has it for sale locally.
