Excellent coal, seems to be a coal and briquette mix, burns long and very little ash and great heat from it.

Anyone know the cheapest place to buy coal in the Kilkenny area? I cut my pension contributions and am going to stockpile some coal instead as it should not depreciate as much as my pension has.
I want to buy it a ton at a time and I will collect.
thanks

I know one think, bag of polish coal (40kg)cost in Poland €5.
Somebody making big money on it.
Is anybody would like make some bussines on it?
I bring it , you sell it:)

Even if you were to fill up a Ford Transit with bags of coal, you'd only be able to fit 37.5 40kg (1.5tn) bags in before you'd be over the weight load, to compete with the guys above, you'd want to sell each bag for 15 quid, so you're making 10 euro off each bag, that's only €375 profit for a full van load but it would cost more than that in fuel to get to Poland from Ireland and back so you'd be losing money I'm afraid

truck rented from polish company €0.50/1km
4000 km both way - 4000 x €0.50 = €2000
coal cost 30 ton - €3000
other (space for keep coal, petrol for "transit" to deliver etc) - €1000

---

all €6000


30 tone 30 000 kg
30 000 kg/40 kg = 750 bags
750 bags x €15 each = €11 250

Now you can think how cost are changed when you have own truck.
I gave you a simple description, but belive me when you buy a space on ship for a 100tone or more, you will make a 30% savings on transport.
This is how some persons are doing in Sligo port.
Do you think it will be a hard to sell 50 bags a day for that price:)?
even if you go for 12 and sell for some local shops you can make a few euro.

Ah, I thought you were only thinking of throwing a few bags in a van or a car if you were to drive home for Christmas instead of taking the plane, but with a truck it's a whole different story

You'd probably run into a load of legal crap though.

hahaha, my Lithuanian friend always says "isn't it?" at the end of everything too

Yeah I think some other non mentionables would yield a bigger profit *cough cough* (that's the result).

I will buy a couple of ton, providing 13% vat is added on,
might as well keep it legal to start with.

I have lots of replay on my private e-mail about polish coal bussines,
I'm vary sorry for it, i did not replay for i while but i can not.
i send some of details to polish comapny about delivering, pricing etc.
if i will get a replay from them i will give answer back ASAP. I' do not understand question abut VAT? Even if price excluded VAT and you have to paid it, you can allways get it back becouse Poland is in EU?

Hi does anyone one know who supplies 40kg bags of coal in Newbridge/Kildare area and what sort of price range I would be looking at ?

thanks a lot

Where is the best place to buy coal in Killarney or surrounding area? I used to get it in 4Homes, the buy 4 & get one free deal, but now they've closed I don't know where to go to get a good deal.

I am sorry I did not see this topic earlier. Just paid 12.99 per 20kg bag in Londis in Malahide - what a rip-off.

I am looking for specific prices. My point is that it is a huge difference of price within one year. Hence a possible rip off. The coal merchant price is cheaper but why should the general public have to pay over the odds in a petrol station. A small difference of price is acceptable.

I know that a petrol station in Belview, Waterford is selling 40kg bags for €17.95 which is actually cheaper than our local coal merchant.

How can this be?

you don't get how the world works do you?

malene

so, the nights are cold again. Any new bargains around in 40 kg bags in Meath area or anyone who can deliver to Meath area and still be cheaper that regular haunts.

hick

same again for the dublin south area, looking for decent prices on 40kg and i think it's time to invest in a bunker as well anyone ever used the guy on rathmines bridge?

fluffytulip

Picked up some 40 kg bags today from local petrol station. bord na mona have had this coal before and theres some heat out of it and no spitting out of it. 12.25 per bag.

hick we bought a bunker last year for xmas pressie to ourselves and it was the best thing we ever bought fit 2-3bags in it at a time. its the small one it was 100euro, there is a bigger one you can get that is or waslast xmas 150 euro

hope this helps

fluffytulip

just to say also i was buying this coal at 18euro a bag last year..guess where im going every night this week to stock up:D

cormie

Is that 12.25 for 40KG bag?? That's pretty good value! I paid 18 today myself, which is cheap from what I know. 12.25 would get you 20kg here. Where do you get it for that price?

If you are in Ballina, there's a guy opposite ths bus station selling 40kg bags of Polish coal for €12.50. Definitely not rip-off. For anyone in the Ulster/North Leinster area there's a guy on the border on the Cavan/Clones road who is selling Polish coal at €11.50 and briquettes at €3.25.

hick

I found a guy in brittas, on the way to blessington who's doing 40kg bags for €12.50 that's at least a fiver cheaper than anywhere else i found in dublin. Can't miss him big sign on the left hand side of the road on the way to dublin. headin out in the am to get another 4 bags and some briquettes too, if I do I'll throw the name up when I get back

cormie

That's pretty cheap! Any chance of showing us where on www.mygeoposition.com?

hick

http://www.mygeoposition.com/loc/53.243030,-6.457901/?zoomLevel=12&mapType=

you'll get 40kg coal from co-op hardware/garden centers for €11.25. I brought 4 bags in my local co-op (Connaught gold garden center) at that price. Its bord na morna coal in white bags. The fruit and veg shop in Westport next to Tesco does 40kg coal for €12.50 as well.
