I got my WRC at Beronio in SF. They let me walk in and pick through what ever I wanted. I've paid between $1.25 to $1.35 per linear foot of 6" wide air dried 11/16" thick flat sawn stock.

Not to be too negative but ... I've always found the staff at Truitt and White rather unfriendly. I'll only go there as a last resort. But ... they have had WRC when I've visited there.

Ken

: Truitt and White in Berkeley is pretty well stocked with long lengths, and
: their price is lower than the yard people use in SF (Besorio? Benofrio?,
: something Italian that I can't recall).

: What are you building?
