Re: Hardwood Floor Job
You will need to determine what species of Patagonian hardwood... there's Rosewood, Pecan, Cherry and few others.

Re: Hardwood Floor Job
I always try my local hardwood flooring distributor first. They usually have the best price I can find and are there when you need them if there are any problems.

Re: Hardwood Floor Job
Yea the guys up here in chicago just try ripping people off. One store told me 15 bucks a square foot for brazilian cherry because I needed so much of it. I am like WTF because i thought you get a better price when you buy a ton of it at once. I will keep searchin. thanks guys.

Re: Hardwood Floor Job
Not that I would suggest them for everything but a customer purchased 5" Brazilian Cherry from Lumber lIquidators for about 5.95 a square ... and the product was surprisingly high quality.
