RE: Firewood (Buying "seasoned" firewood on Craigslist or Facebook marketplace)

in #homesteading7 years ago

Man! so sorry for the con artist.
When I'm on the fence about whether to pursue these kind of things I go with what a rather smart friend of mine advised. If you do nothing is that person more likely to be able harm someone else the same way? If the answer is yes then it is only ethical that you try to stop it from happening again even if the result is legal action. Glad you're set to stay warm. It's mighty awful to run out of 'warm' in the middle of a long winter.

Yes Ma'am. It was a hard lesson! So from now on I will inspect the wood I get and ensure it is what I paid for. I like your reasoning behind it. I do not want anyone else getting "raked over the coals!" That is a lot of grocery money there that I let go away. And if someone else gets duped, it could have more severe consequences for them. I think I will go ahead and report her. Thank you.
