That looked like pine to me.

In that part of the country, it probably is. Not the highest quality, but perfectly good.

Very true. As for the OP have you stacked and put a tape on the mix or any other updates to your matter at hand?

Yes where is the OP?

A local Cl ad was advertising mixed hardwoods $128 per cord which is $1 per cu. Ft. Split (green for sure). Normally it would be around $300-$400 per cord. Mixed being the lower figure and 99% oak or hickory on the higher end. This coming from a semi desert area. Tells me prices may vary considerably across the states.

I have bought a cord of hardwood partially seasoned for $120. This was years ago when I first started burning but I know people who have bought it for that amount as recently as last year. It varies A LOT according to region.

.38 of a cord at those measurements.
That is not a full size bed. A full size bed is 8'
I haul similar size cord in my ranger and 3 bed loads is about 1 cord.
You can do better.

You beat me to it.

75 bucks is good. Gas was probably 10 between cutting, splitting & delivery. Just call it a day. Next time you order more tell him to be sure it measures out, maybe he can throw more wood on top. Overall not a bad price since it was delivered. Now if someone was making minimum wages 75 dollars is a lot of money so it better measure out or I'd be upset. however the young man can't be getting rich selling either, just a thought.......

I fill my 10x6 trailer with 2' sides and folks usually estimate my load at about a cord and a half. So I think it's common that people get shorted. They just don't know what a cord of wood looks like, so I think the wood sellers take advantage of that. Let him know he shorted you. How else will these guys have to start delivering a honest load if they don't have too.

I'm sure it's very common. Half the time, I don't think the sellers know what a cord is, either, especially the casual, part time guys.

That's what I ran into last year. Just a local family, nice people, trying to clear their land and make a few bucks. But they advertised a cord, so they made good on it.
