Time to revive this topic. It seems lumber prices are back down in my area and wanted to see if others have noticed, or if it is just a fluke. I dont buy often enough to keep up with the fluctuation.

Last summer, i re-decked my flatbed. 2x12x16's were $49 each.

Was going to do my other trailer this summer. The same 2x12x16's were $92!!! No thanks, i will wait.

Fast forward to today. 2x12x16, same place. $34 each. I asked 3 times if those were treated. She said they were. Did she quote me wrong, or is lumber back to normal?

My main reason for asking is because we have been putting off building a house. If materials are back down again, we may start moving ahead.

Building a deck now. 2x6x16's were $13 and change
2x8x16's were $16 and change.

All pressure treated.

Bought some used 2-3/8's pipe for 60 a stick, steel is high.

Materials are back down a bunch. I was over a barrel, paid ~$16 for 5/4x6"x16' this summer. They're ~$11 now and still coming down.

Bought 5/4x6x10 pressure treated last week for $5.48. Was 3x that a few months ago.

Glad to see this.

I dont buy much so I didnt know but good to hear.

My uncle just bought 2000 feet worth of new 3 inch pipe for $33 a stick. You should’ve shopped around more

I bought 16 miles of it for 8 bucks a stick......he should have shopped around....

That's a good price.

Really depends on the pipe. We just got 60 joints of 2-3/8” at $42 each. This was good, clean, straight, not lined pipe. Haven’t really found similar much cheaper. Would be curious to know where he got it and what he got. We need 40 more joints. We bought all this guy had and went to Oklahoma for it.

When comparing pipe, is everyone buying the same length and weight? Makes a big difference in cost.

The high was 1750. It traded today in the 620's.
