One MOre Southdown Question

marco67 said:
Just a FWIW I think it was doug (dima96) that was having trouble finding it.
The info I got was that it has been discounted by old castle / yard right, not Home depot which I think is where some of the confusion comes in. Each year home depot discontinues it as it is a seasonal product ...then the rumors start flying. Anyway what I was told by the Old Castle rep was that it is a discontinued product but there were 1000 pallets left, my minimum order would have been 22 pallets (900+ bags) or one full trailer. I opted not to invest the money or the space and instead found another source that will be delivering only 6 pallets. Now before everyone starts calling on this
I DO NOT HAVE South Down NOW! The only way I could order from this source was with an unspecified delivery date of "March" thats it just "March"
The way I see it by then HD will either have it again or not. If they do I'll have it and not have to do those stupid 12 store "chasing the sand days" :mad: and if they don't well then revert to A.

Oooo...sorry Marc....my bad :( ....

I thought you were unable to get it at all...sorry for having misquoted you. I misunderstood.

I'll shut-up now. :(

Tell ya what, when it does return to HD, I'm buying a ton and storing it until Feb 2006. People will pay just abut anything then. ;)
 
if i see a palet i am buying it

of course i will share :)
 
I'll tell you what. If anybody finds it before I do and your somewhat close to me, I'll pay you twice what it cost you and pick it up. I really need to get some in my tank. Getting itchy to get some sand and water in it.
 
south down is like crack to reefers...cant have enough and when you dont have it youre always looking for it
 
I'm glad I bought some over a year ago. Actually I met my first BRS person at HD buying it. I ran into Paula in Waltham. She asked me if the sand was for a saltwater tank and told me about BRS.
