Here in Ohio, Lowes has FFF on sale for $14 and some change a bundle, I dug thru the stacks and found 2 stacks of p/p layflat (new Bluecor)
Since they didn't know it was different from PB3 I got it at the same price.
P.S. The easy way to find the P/P stuff is to look for square cut edges, not folded over

 

Wholey crap! I live in Ohio! Time to go to the store! Great find, thanks for letting us know!

 

Wow..I wonder if Dow heard the MKII is shipping Monday and figured we needed a break on foam?

Sale? I love Sales! Whoppee, $14 for a bundle? And the good stuff to boot. You must be living right. Hope a sale like that comes to Florida. I'm keepin my eye out for that one!

 

No luck at the Lowes in Toledo area.

 

Defiance Ohio has the old stuff, still 38 bucks though.

"Extruded PolyStyrene" is the same description they use for the DOW Protection Board (blue FFF) so I think this may actually be the "old stuff". It does NOT say that item number is fan-folded so you may have found a winner!

Can someone who buys or bought it post the dimension and the weight of the package? I need them in order to get a quote from the courier services I use to ship it here to the Dominican Republic. Can't get this stuff here.

 

well, it's 2 foot by 4 foot by about 18 inches high, prob weighs around 5 pounds

 

Thanks, Jeff

 

:?: huh? 50 feet divided by 2 feet width means that 50 feet will be 25 layers. At 6mm per layer that makes 150mm or about 5.905 inches. You must be measuring a triple-stack if yours is 18 inches thick. :!:
And if you bought a triple-stack for the price of a single, you need to run back to that store QUICK!

 

Yea, I get ~ 6" for a direct measurement of the thickness.

 

Thanks, kwok. I'll find out Monday how much it will cost to ship it to here.

 

Ok, I just came back from my Lowes and they now have PBIII on clearance for $9.09 a bundle!!!
This is the honest truth and I didn't have my cell phone on me or I would have taken a picture of it. They look to be down to 5 bundles left of it though.

Anyone close to Columbus, Ohio might consider a trip down to purchase some, or if they plan to make a trip down I will be glad to go pick some up for you and hold it until you can come to Columbus and pick it up.

I do drive to Cleveland/Akron/Canton on a regular basis during the work week and can even bring some up if anyone needs some, you would have to meet me at wherever I am working that day.

If you are sure you want me to nab some, you have to make sure you will come for it because I just don't like the stuff personally, (I have 3 bundles on hand for prototyping) and don't want to be stuck with it.

 

Hmmm - I wonder if you could buy it online from Jeff's Ohio store, then schedule it for a pickup at your local store :!: :roll:
Hey Jnida63, exactly where is your store? Is it the only Lowe's in Columbus?
Good grief, I just looked and they have 7 stores in Columbus! On which street is that one?

 

Do a search in columbus, it is the east lowes store #1211
