A few months ago they began cutting down some old hacberry trees at the State Capitol in Pierre South Dakota. The trees were planted when the Capitol was built so they are 100 plus years old. Everyone was coming out of the woodwork trying to get some of the wood for creating or burning. When it was all said and done the entire lot was ground up or hauled out to the landfill to be burned. I was able to get to the wood pile before it was burned and was able pick up a nice pickup load of logs after almost having a tug of war with the wood burners that were cutting it up as fast as they could pull it out of the pile including logs that I was dragging out for myself, if I didn't have my foot on it they figured it was fair game.
Words out and I have people calling and wanting pieces made from the wood. My question is what's a fair premium or should there be one at all? 0, 10%, 20%, double my usual price?
Thanks in advance for your input!
