Default Large Basswood blocks 4 sale

I found this ad while surfing, company in Central New York willing to cut and KD to order large pcs of basswood- 6x6" or larger- 50 bdft minimum. I had a quick conversation with them, logs are on the order of 3' diameter-

WoodPlanet.com : Offers to Sell : Hardwood Lumber

I get no compensation from this company, just thought it might be of interest to others here. Thinking I might need some myself....

Whats the pricing per bdft. Usually if its thicker than 4" the energy it takes to dry it makes it too expensive. 6"x 6" x 120" is about 30 bdft so it would take almost 2 10' lengths to meet the 50 bdft minimum. A lot depends on the price.
