Since he delivers, he has to pay for the limousine and the five star hotel on the way and the lobster and steak dinners for the accompanying staff and their four star hotel suites. |

I come up with $10.85 per bf at the $1800 price and about $30.12 per BF for the $5000 retail price. Still kinda pricey. There are 166.67 BF for sale. 2 in. X 4 in. X 12 in. = 96 sq. in. per L ft. 96 cu. in. X 250 L ft.=24000 cu in. 2400 cu. in. / 144 cu. in. = 166.67 bf |

The way the ad is written the pieces could be short random lengths of cut offs... I'd expect someone to say 31 @ 2X4X8 or something like that if it were dimension 2X lumber. John |
