Does Carlos still sell BH209 for a great price?

I remember that back when, you could order a bottle from him shipped for $26 or so. Anyone know if he still sells it?

I believe it's around $30 now. Two bottle minimum plus shipping, but no Hazmat fee.

Not a great price. Ordered some last week. I got two bottles of BH209 to my door for $73.00. That's $29 per bottle and $15 for the shipping. I live in Clifton, VA. Works out to $36.50 a bottle (2 bottle minimum) to my door.

Shipping seems a little high (back in the day it was $27 per bottle to your door!) but still a decent deal.

Now i can get it for that price or less locally including the tax. Not much of a savings anymore but it is still convenient.

I think... If you were to purchase a 5 lb. jug the price break is much better + it is real pounds not 10 ounces.

5lb jugs are THE way to go with BH209. I dont think i can get those cheaper locally. Those are $221 plus tax and about $10 in gas. Im not really sure what Carlos charges for a 5lber anymore.

Carlos ships pretty cheap. I think it's $5-6. So, that $66 for 2 lbs.

Still a good deal for those who have to buy it online like me. He started out selling it for $22 lb, but you can't blame him is Western keep increasing the prices. He's still shipping with no Hazmat fees, and I have no idea how he does that?

Hubby11 says he just paid $15 in shipping to VA. Im even further away from NC so i doubt it would be any cheaper.

Locally im at roughly $32-35 plus tax and nearly every shop has it in stock. Luckily i stocked up at $25 a bottle a couple years ago and got a smoking deal on a 5lber at a gunshow after the season ended. I got enough to last me a very long time since i normally DONT SMOKE.

Muley

A friend of mine got the same quote last week $29 per bottle 2 bottle minimum - $15.00 shipping. So it is cheaper to buy locally here... But, if you buy a 5 pounder you do save quite a bit.

Powder Valley has 5 lb'ers for $196
