Noticed Home Depot is now advertising these in the last few days:

Online only, shipping can double the cost, no store delivery option, and
delivery time ten to 14 days?

Convenience always has a price, and there are situations where
"in-store" availability may justify that, but shipping costs and
delivery times don't classify as "convenient".

Good luck, CFP, with that business model ...



Did you notice the size, 2'x8', no full sheets.

Yep, but I did manage to do a faux "checkout" with a 4'x4' sheet of
walnut for $46 something, plus tax and a shipping cost of $55.

Equates roughly to $92/full sheet with no shipping. A few dollars more
than my old price sheet from Hardwood Products lists; and about $20 less
than Clark's, with no shipping.

Then again, I did not notice grade mentioned in the ad (grade is not an
indication of quality, just visible characterics).

AAMOF, I have recently bought higher quality imported C3 (as far as
ply's, no voids, and less brittle veneer) at Hardwood Products than some
of their Domestic A1 grade.
