around my area a "face cord" 1/3 of a cord goes for 60 or 65 delivered but you must buy 3 (a real cord)
so that's about 195 per cord.

I had my dump wagon on and trucking home a load the other day and I stopped in town at the variety store and when I cam out this fellow was looking at my wood and says to me "how much" now my dump wagon is 6.5 feet wide and 10 feet long and I always figure I get about 1 full cord on it so I says back to him 200 bucks cash and I drop it off right now in your lane if you live in town....whoa he says, that's too much..so I says no problem its going home with me..wait he says we can dicker...I says we just did, I asked 200 you said no, we are done..lol got in my truck and brought my wood home

I got real lucky and found a guy on Craigslist that had natural gas ran down his street so he hooked up to it, and sold his boiler. He had 27 face cord of well seasoned oak and ash cut at 22" and split that he sold me at 55.00 a face cord and he even helped my wife and I load it. One of those rare good craigslist buys on firewood.
