    Default Unbelievable US wood prices

    I know eBay represents only a certain segment of the sales channel, but after I tripped over the timber sales section on US eBay I was seriously thinking about filling up a shipping container and bringing it over by slow boat!

    I like your thinking Evanism. Timber is expensive here in Australia.

    AQIS, custom's duty and GST will quickly blow the cost out if you don't carefully select the timber.
