Does anybody have any idea what hardware stores purchase construction lumber for, say for example wholesale 2x4x10's

Or, to rephrase the question, does anybody know what the mark-up is for lumber, in hardware stores. Since the selling price is easy figure out, a percentage mark-up would lead me to their purchase price.

Does anybody know anything about Acacia Mangium trees, whether they are sold in the DR lumber market? And wholesale/retail prices?

Talk to Ochoa. They are one of the largest wood importers in the country. I am sure that they would tell you whether Acacia mag. is here or not.

Not sure what they purchase them for but selling costs are about $450RD for 2x4x16 imported and $320RD for 2x4x14 'local' wood
