Default Lowes RANT!

In article , says...

Forget Lowe's. If they had BB it would be too high, like their hardwood.

Look around for a hardwood dealer and they will ususally handle Baltic
Birch. There are 2 or 3 in our area that sell it at a reasonable price.
Several of the independent lumber yards do too. The only drawback so far is
they do not always stock the 'A' grade. I occasionally have to settle for a
occasional veneer-filled hole (no filler).

Same for my local dealer, who stocks the lower grade. Kind of annoying
to have a football-shaped patch on the "good" side. Nobody else
anywhere nearby stocks it at all.
