Needed: Enterprising Person

[Steve_Honeycutt]

I see that West Penn is selling African Mahogany and Sapele for $2.50 per bdft for 4/4, but you have to buy a large bundle to get this price. They are also selling 8/4 for $2.75 per bdft. This sale is Oct 24-26. An enterprising person with a truck and trailer would purchase a bundle and resale in smaller quantities and still be able to offer these at a good price. Since I do not have a truck or trailer, I can't do this, but I would be willing to purchase a small quantity.

Do NCWW members ever do a group buy?

I have asked them if a bundle would fit in a standard size pickup truck. If so I will probably purchase a 8/4 bundle and sell some off.

There have been group buys before. The last one I recall was from an ad on Craigslist.

Indeed, we have had group buys. I recall several years ago that bobby g organized a group buy for foam brushes (various sizes)...it was an outstanding deal!

Mike, If you attend the K-Extravaganza I can take a few boards off your hands. Thanks.

If you get the bundles of African mahogany and/or Sapele, I would like to get 50-60 bf of each.

Chris,

I could use 10-20 bdft of sapele.
