Default beeswax price comparison

I wish to thanks everyone for their inputs. I have learned a lot about
pricing and quality of beeswax.

Don't know where you live in NB but an apiary should be nearby. I wouldn't
buy 'health food' quality if you can avoid it, too $$$. Check the yellow
pages or maybe the police for bee removal services. They are usually bee
keepers (like I was . Retail woodturning suppliers also seem to believe
bee's wax and gold are close enough to being the same thing to be
similarly priced.

I am shopping to buy pure beeswax to make my own finish. The closest I
got from a health store re-seller was $40.00 CAD for what they call a
brick weighting 5 pounds. I am a little curious to find out how much
others are paying for their beeswax.
