I know you aren't looking for Indiana pricing, but just to throw this out, as of yesterday 10/3/14, my local guy had dropped to $500/lb. dry.

Spoke with Terrence ( terry ) Manley the buyer in Ft Wayne yesterday and he's currently in Florida and due back the 14th and he stated he'll still be paying $700.00 upon return and higher for better root. I know your southern but he drives to central Indiana to meet diggers. So you might try him if you have the quantity to justify coming north.

thanks gmcpaul I appreciate the info.

Thanks for the heads up. I might have to talk with a few relatives of mine and see if they want to combine our hauls from this year and sell that way. It's still a little too early for me to hit the panic button, but in another few weeks you may see me start to pucker up a little.
