Looking for cheap BASSWOOD?

[bcarvings]

Hi,
I recently obtained large amount of basswood. The basswood is air dried 1 year per thickness then kiln dried to a moisture content between 6-8%. All the basswood is perfectly clear, and there are NO knots, and NO defects of any kind! Bellow is how much the basswood costs. The measurements are in inches.
1x1x12= .50
2x2x12= $2
2x3x12= $2.50
4x4x12= $8
4x6x12= $12
Also I have a few two foot basswood blocks.
4x4x24= $16
4x6x24= $24
There is no minnimun order and to save on shipping you may come pick the wood up. E-mail me at bcarvings@verizon.net if you would liek tp purchase wood. Thank you

If I did my math correctly, that's roughly $6/bd ft. (on the pieces I checked). As I recall, I've been paying between $4 and $4.50/bd ft. (can't find my notebook amidst all the junk on my desk) from my regular suppliers.

bc...why are you posting this same post on three different topics? Most of us read all the topics in this forum ???

Yes the price ranges from $5-$6 per bourd foot. I'm selling a lot of wood locally so I guess I'l just stick with that. Is your wood high qualitiy northern basswood?

Also what do you think of these prices if I were to sell them at this?

Basswood Butternut Tupelo White Pine

2x2x12 1.25 1.75 2.25 1.25

3x3x12 3.50 4.25 5.00 3.50

4x4x12 6.75 8.00 9.00 6.75

4x6x12 10.00 12.00 13.50 10.00

It may or may not be cheap basswood but it sure is not a free advertising site.

When buying wood, it is very important to consider Quality, Price, Availability, Services provided and Shipping costs.

That makes a much more complex formula than price per board foot.
