Full chisel, what is the price for a face cord of split wood there?
Face cord of 16" wood here is $70 to $85, sometimes even delivered for that. And the Amish are cheaper and will do delivery and stacking if you are only a couple miles away and pay cash. They send 3 or 4 little kids in bare feet with horses and a wagon load of wood and know that the buyer is going to tip them well. My niece used to fill them up with ice cream, pop, give them her kids old rubber boots/ shoes and give them money.
 
Anywhere between $50 and $80 for quality hardwood. Keep in mind that I had to drive 40+ miles each way to get there...it was for one of my mom's co-workers that lives in St. Louis on the other side of the river.
