[QUOTE="habanero, post: 1353363, member: 12443"] I've never bought or sold firewood either, so I also don't know what "normal" is. But if it were me, I guess I'd look at it this way. It's going to be hard for the seller to accurately calculate how many cords of split/stacked wood is going to be on a load-and every load is going to be different because of different tree sizes/shapes/etc. If I was routinely getting about the same amount of split wood out of the loads, then I would negotiate the price of the logs based on that amount regardless of what the seller says is on the load. If I could pay a certain amount for "8 cords" (knowing it's really 6 cords processed) and feel comfortable with that price, then that'd be good enough for me. If on the other hand I felt I was paying too much for the 6 cords of processed wood, I'd move on to another supplier. [/QUOTE]
